Dylan Talks Tone Recieves Commision From Some Of These Links

Had an idea and figured you’re the guy to go to ask for advice on this sort of thing.
So I got my hands on one of these and was thinking about adding a concentric pot for volume and tone and essentially turning it into some kind of Esquire on steroids.
I really wanna keep that original knob on there though. Do you know if that’s possible? Like, could I mix and match and stick the strat knob on top of the lower knob from a concentric knob set without any issues???
And for that matter, would a concentric pot and a tone cap fit in that little route?
Rockin the kitty!!!!
Hello Dylan, thank you share your knowledge. Could you make video about pickup winding focusing only on one parameter…..copper wire tension while being windedon the b bobbin ( loose vs tight or in between) How this parameter itself affects the tone in every aspect ( brightness, clarity , low frequency) .
Hey Dylan I just found your channel and I wanted to know if you could answer wiring questions and where I could reach you I’m working on a guitar I have experience with single tele pick ups but I’m trying to replace the 3 way switch and the pick ups on a bcrich I just bought I was wondering if you could help me
wait… this is a $1000 guitar?
More snakeoil pickups that are — at best — a sidegrade to the great alnico 5's that the guitar comes with stock. You fools waste money on his pickups if you want. But it just makes you easy marks.
So the super 8 would make for a good early VH tone?
Did I miss the before video?
Dylan, how much money are these guitar makers saving use cheap pickups? Can you convince them to use a better one, is a few more wounds of wire really that expensive?
Good viideo
I replaced the humbucker on mine to a Seymour Duncan Distortion and the pot was upgraded to a Mojotone Vintage Taper 500k pot. It really woke up the guitar and the harsh treble end from the original pickup was gone. I did also try to drop in a Gotoh Hardtail bridge and it was not a direct fit. I was only able to use the saddles, which did help clear up the tone.
I kind of wish i bought one but im guessing they will make a million
Sweet!! Thanks For Sharing Dylan ????????????????????
Seeing that kitty face makes me want a Frank Zappa pickguard . Somebody make that happen .
Clear note definition at high distortion settings is the calling card of a Dylan pickup.
I got one of these and noticed the exact same thing with the pickup. But the distortion seemed even less refined playing it live in my band. I found a white 53mm tornbucker for a good deal and no waiting except shipping. Should be here in a couple of days.
????????????
that's the cleanest control cavity I've ever seen. How about a stacked concentric volume and tone?
I did the same with my Squier Esquire… The first thing and only thing I did was change the pick to a better grade pickup. I put a Fender '52 RI in it, left the pots, wiring and switch. It sounds way better now.
Science to back that up…I have to use that every day talking about dog food. Only 4 science based brands but people want to argue with me why those foods are not good for your dog. Amazing.
DAF are potted pickups or non-potted? Dylan claims that potting pickups compresses the notes and "dampens the coil". When potting the pickup coil which will dampen the pickups coil you loose dynamics and won't sustain the note as long damping the decay length, is this true or not?
The OEM bridge is based on a Gotoh design. So for $50 you can upgrade the bridge from pot metal to brass and that will elevate this guitar too.
Plot twist – he didn't changed pickups
Well, you just sold me on that pickup.
Dig it
I kinda wish they'd have put a trem on these because I've got a chrome floyd laying around in a box somewhere around here that would have been killer on one of these.
I seen the pickguard/scratchplate in England for my girlfriends guitar for £60 delivered, aint buying an expensive one off
Do you have a distributer in Germany? I was lucky to get the 2005 Hello Kitty Guitar. The Pickup is not that bad. But it could be better.
I can recommend DTT pups as I have the DAF and Eightball humbuckers in my Les Paul . I also have an 8 – Ball in the bridge position of my SG . The tone and note clarity are great .
Why adult men pretend their into kids guitars? Creepy af
Great video, thanks! When I follow the link to buy the pickup, I assume I'm getting the bridge and not the neck or does it matter?
i put a Seymour duncan Jb in mine. What else would you do to make it better ? Thanks Dylan
Trogly put a push pull pot in his to do a coil split.
Looking forward to this. I'm still going to get some DTT pups for my strat at some point. $$ tight atm as wife's having cancer treatment (which is difficult for her but going well) Soon as I'm $$ happy ???? ???? ????
