When you are in the "just magnetic pickup" position on the blend knob, try pulling up on the tone knob to access the single coil sound. This is very different from the usual Les Paul or Strat pickup selection, and acts more like a zoom lens on a camera ranging from the more mid focused sound of the magnetic pickup to the more acoustic and wide range piezo pickup, which actually has more deep lows as well as more extended highs. Then adjust the tone control all the way up and then blend back and forth between the magnetic and piezo pickups. without unwanted feedback or breakup.Įxploring the Model-1 Sound By Rick Turner:įirst, switch the EQ out.
