Misssissippi	I'm lookin' to buy some new humbuckers for my Washburn W164dl. i like to get heavy, but when playing live, i play a lot of different styles....led zepp, santana, grateful dead, allman brothers, al green, red hot chili peppers, talking heads etc...so i need something that is really versatile. my effects unit is a POD XT live...I can get a lot of sounds from it. oh, i would also like something that will allow me to play with a very clean tone if needed....basically the best of both worlds. bart You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Misssissippi	just reading through the Duncan specs, i would probably go with the Duncan Custom™ SH-5 in the bridge and the '59 model SH-1(or the Satch P.A.F. Dimarzio) for the neck....that looks like it is an extremely versatile combination. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
