I'm going to put the Dragon 1 pickups back in my '95 CU22

I like the sounds I'm getting from my newly acquired '97 CE22 so much that I've decided to put the Dragons and the rotary switch back in my old CU22.

I'll remove the Duncan Antiquity pickups and put them in something else.

I have quite a few guitars with paf style humbuckers, including a Gibson ES-335, so I'll always have that tone available. I'm going to return my Orange CU22 to stock.

Approved!

I'm on board!

Seems to be this in my '97 CE22:

1. bridge humbucker
2. screw poles only of both humbuckers (in parallel?)
3. slug poles only of both humbuckers (in series?)
4. slug poles only of both humbuckers (in parallel?)
5. neck humbucker

I have this strange urge to watch Back To The Future II

Yeah I know it’s not a Classic Electric

I think it’s the guitar that Marty would have gotten if he didn’t get fired

The Dragon I's in the '95 and '97 CE-22's are killer with overdrive.

But the Duncan Antiquitys in the '95 CU-22 sound great with overdrive as well, and they have a bluesier, more transparent sound.

It's nice having one guitar with humbuckers that sounds like a vintage Les Paul.

Think I'm going to chicken out and put off putting the Dragon I's back in the CU-22.
