The Axeist Monk
Inspired
Settle down!Not that kind.I've been married to the same sweet woman for 29 years.
I have a 2012 Am.Strat Olympic white & rosewood board,with fat 50's pu's.I like the tones I get with these.Great for some Tx blues,Cray, etc. Long time humbucker fan,and am not used to hearing so much hum.My computer is close to where I sit with my Axe2,which,I know, is the greatest contributor to this problem.Moving away from the desk isn't always possible.No longer play out.Do record and jam with friends.
I am ready to pull the trigger on a prewired area 58,58/67,61 from dimarzio.I've heard samples on YT,and read reviews,as well.
Have any of you used these and would you recommend them or do you have some other noiseless options?I had a 2004 Am dLX Strat with Fender noiseless pu's and S1 switch which I never got to like.Never sounded Straty enough.
Styles I play are jazz to classic rock.
Have had an axe since the Standard in 2008.Also use Js2400,Epi Elite LP custom,some nice Carvins,and my original '65 SG which I bought,back then,while in high school.
I want a prewired setup I can easily drop into the strat.I have a fear of screwing things up with a soldering iron.Haven't soldered in 10's of years.Won't be soldering ,now.
Thanks,in advance
