So I’ve finally touched my tone knob. I avoided the thing for years, and I think I understand why some people go with single coils in the neck position now. Thanks to a tip from Mark Lettieri, you can warm up a single coil quite a bit, almost to the point where it’s in striking distance of a humbucker, except for the whole hum thing. That got me to thinking, what does a tone knob practically do for a neck humbucker, other than jazz it up? I wasn’t able to get my custom 24 to do anything inspiring with it. Wisdom appreciated!
