"Hello this is Bill Macpherson for Expert Village another thing I like to talk about is the guitar and how it affects your tone. Now your trouble pick up is usually a best sound for a rock sound, the trouble pick up is usually a guitars choice for a rock tone it will get your screams and it will get a really bitty sound. Of course for your rhythm pick up which will get more tone but not that much bite. It's also a good sound but it's a little to much tone to it and it won't get those screams that lock. "
