I have a 2018 Custom 24 with 85/15 pickups and the 5 way selector. I also have a 2022 McCarty (not 594) with 58/15LT pickups. Here’s my dilemma: I love the sound of the McCarty in Humbucker mode for Classic Rock, but I’m not crazy about the split sounds on this guitar. On the Custom 24, I love the single coil sounds in positions 2 & 4 but not as crazy about the full humbucking sounds of the 85/15’s.
If I change the pickups in the Custom 24 to 58/15LT’s, I’m sure the single coil sounds in positions 2 & 4 will be wimpy and thin sounding, right? Has anyone done this and are this split sounds still good and useable? Thanks!
