What's the best way to get single coil (strat, tele sounds) out of a humbucker? should i (option 1) have a coil tap and then add resistors/ capacitors to strengthen the weak single coil sound or (option 2) should i install a varitone switch? I read some reviews and some folks say you can get a strat and tele sound around the middle position of the varitone switch. I use a classic 57 and a classic 57 plus on my les paul.
"Lets see… well I play the guitar and when I'm not playing the guitar, I think about playing the guitar. My other favorite instrument, is the guitar and if I aspired to play any other instrument, it would be the guitar...

I can’t sing so I sing through my guitar. So when the sound guy says: “Your guitar is too loud!” I think: "Why does he never say that to the vocalist?"
