View Full Version : M3 side-by-side. Crazy?

Would it be possible to put two M3s together in one super bridge pickup? It would only be .5" wider than a normal humbucker. In my head I would think you could then get the following sounds:

Both on- a massive humbucker tone
M3 closest to bridge on- that great M tone
Other M3 on- slightly darker
And with a splitter on each, you could get some great Tele/Strat combos.

Any thoughts? :) or :( or :rolleyes:

As a variation on that theme, I wonder what it would sound like to run a bridge M3 and middle M1 in series on a normal 3M setup? That might be similar to what you're talking about without having to do a different route.

Or maybe do two M3s side by side at the bridge like you said then have two M1s side by side at the neck! That could make for some interesting sounds.

how about just running 6 M's? A wall of M pickups on your guitar. :eek:
LOL!

With that much magnetic pull on the srtings you won't need the Feiten system to reintonate.
