Hey all,
Time to thoroughly test out these Seymour Duncan P-Rails pickups and the Triple Shot mounting rings that allow you to access all the tones. I think these might be THE most versatile pickups you can put in your axe, and they sound great!
Gear used:
2002 Gibson Les Paul Standard DC
Seymour Duncan P-Rails and Triple Shot mounting rings
Line 6 Helix direct into my interface, WhoWatt amp model with my own custom Impulse Response.

Common question: Do you have to flip the wiring when you flip the neck pickup? Answer: No, the physical orientation does not affect the phase/polarity electrically, so no wiring changes need to be made.
@paperhanger29
@paperhanger29 2 года назад
Hey Lucas. Ordering these today. Thanks for the demo. Really sold me. Obviously wiring wasn't an issue. Any issue by reversing the neck with install? (Ie, screws...fire.....side the wires are on the pickup). I wanna be sure to provide my local luthier all the needed info. Cheers

@@paperhanger29 I had no issues with installing it in the standard Gibson cavity route there, but your mileage may vary of course. And if you use the triple shot ring the install will be even easier.

Thanks Lucas! I am using the triple shot. Guitar is a fernandes vertigo but has emg 81/60. I imagine the cavity should be good.

They certainly do! Great tone, great playing. This is one of the videos that convinced me to buy the P-rails for a new custom build. Very excited. I'm glad you demonstrated the inverted neck pickup sound on the rail single coil. I love the SRV sound you get out of it. Does this compromise the P-90 sound on the neck at all?

I was reading the comments while listening, and had to scroll up to see what setting you were on, Bridge : Rail and Neck : Rail sounds amazing ! I'm getting a set of these.

So versatile. I can go from playing ac/d to SRV with the flick or pull of a switch. I had mine put in just like this guy suggested with the neck pickup reversed and I think that made a tremendous difference. Don't hesitate!! This video is legit

I can tell you were excited and inspired! Look forward to more videos. Good luck.

Thank you for the hearties :-) I am strongly considering to change the 57 Classic's in my 1990 Les Pauls Studio to P-Rails... I do not use my tone knobs ever (on none of my 3 guitars), so I could install a 3 Way Switch instead of the tone poentiometers for every pickup (I really hate the idea of the frame switches. I play live a lot and it just screams "BREEAAAAAAAKING IN THE WORST MOMENT!!!!!!!!!" for me). I play a Helix (LT) as well so I could do lots of stuff with the different pickup settings on the guitar in conjunction with my presets. God damn, now I am really teased and curious... Gnahhhh I am going to do it any ways. I know it. Ask me in 10 months, and my Les Paul will sound like a wobbly down tuned Tele with bad strings ^^
