Cav prototype-1
Wouldn’t it be too convenient for me to come back and tell you this is the greatest thing ever. I’m not gonna BS you guys like that. But damn this thing is amazing.
Maybe these prototype pickups are different than those in the Cavalier. Maybe they just work better in a 3SC arrangement. Maybe when you see these 3 pickups, you approach it from a different perspective, you just ask it to do that Strat® (a registered trademark of my friends at FMIC you guys know that so just leave it alone in the comments ok) stuff and it has its own style on that job.
I don’t know, but in the first 30 seconds after I finished setting it up I discovered the most amazing chimey compressed jangle, so funky it hurts, and that was enough to blow my mind.
Now its the bridge pickup grinding the Marshall shockingly well. It’s crisp, defined, nice chunk, but it comes from a single coil place. It’s not humbucker lite, that’s for sure.
Anyway, everyone is gone now so I need to crank this the hell up. I don’t know if we’re going to make this or anything at all right now. I just know I put the thing together and - so far - I’m stunned. Yes we will get some clips.
