I'd like to know what the most popular combinations would be. Vote two or three times. But not all for the same answer. |

You can only vote once>
My votes:
1. 2 p90's
2. SSH. If I could only have one guitar I'd want SSH with the H splittable. My go to sound is Single Coil at the bridge or single at the neck. On second thoughts I'd like Single Humbucker Single. |

That's a good one too... I meant to do a write in and thought I clicked it but apparently I didn't. I'll ost pics of my kramer with the wiring finished when I get it done. It has 3 jackson humbuckers with split coils. |

I agree with BBT's full statement thingy. I'd love to have like an ES-355 Dot in Red with a couple of P90s in it for that different look and sound. And I would love to play Johnny B. Goode at the Enchantment under the sea dance one day. |

I'm about to start working on a thin-body full hollow body with a single p90 in the neck position. |

Hum Hum Hum with out of phase switching and coil taps. You could almost get any sound you want with this! |

Humbuckers all the way. But they have to be active. |

I dislike active pickups because of the fact that they run on batteries. The way I use my guitar the batteries would fry out every day. 9-Volts are getting more expensive every day too. |

actually nine volts in active pickups will last a lot longer than you might think(unless you leave it plugged in ALL the time). |

Not to mention lots of guitars are going to a 2AA system. AA rechargables are reasonably priced. |

True, when using active pickups, make sure you unplug your guitar when not in use... Or your batteries will die awfully fast. |
