Finding a tone with the PTB circuit and MFD pups

Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:53 am

Hey guys,

I wrote this for a friend that is coming from another brand of guitar. I sometimes see guys trying to wrap their heads around a guitar like, e.g., a Comanche when they're accustomed to more traditional tone circuits and more subdued pickups.

A lot of good info there...though, a bit sprawling for a concise starting point. If I was having trouble getting a tone and that was the first thing I was directed to I might freak out a bit and think it's not worth the trouble.
