Common question: Do you have to flip the wiring when you flip the neck pickup? Answer: No, the physical orientation does not affect the phase/polarity electrically, so no wiring changes need to be made.

Hey Lucas. Ordering these today. Thanks for the demo. Really sold me. Obviously wiring wasn't an issue. Any issue by reversing the neck with install? (Ie, screws...fire.....side the wires are on the pickup). I wanna be sure to provide my local luthier all the needed info. Cheers

Thanks Lucas! I am using the triple shot. Guitar is a fernandes vertigo but has emg 81/60. I imagine the cavity should be good.

That was hands down one of the best sounds i've ever heard coming from an electric guitar. Superb demonstration, playing and what a kickass pickup set!

They certainly do! Great tone, great playing. This is one of the videos that convinced me to buy the P-rails for a new custom build. Very excited. I'm glad you demonstrated the inverted neck pickup sound on the rail single coil. I love the SRV sound you get out of it. Does this compromise the P-90 sound on the neck at all?

Best tone and playing I've heard for ages!

Demo's of the P-rails always convince me I like the sound of P90's the best. I would love to hear these pickup options in a clean setting. The parallel setting sounds like a Les Paul.

Old school playing, old school sounds . Thanks for the non shred video !

This is the best way to make your les paul sounds like a strat !!! Amazing pickups..

Thanks man! Just found out about these pickups 30 minutes ago and your demo is, by far, the best I could ever have found. I was confused and almost bypassed them but your demo showed how easy they are to use and how good they sound. Thank You Very Much! Best Regards and Best Wishes for 2023!

Your chops are on point, your rig sounds killer and each of the tone settings were discernable from the others. Excellent demo Sir! There are a lot of very convoluted demos out there on these things and I'd say you've done this pick up a great deal of Shhwing! Party on Garth!!

I consider that 99.99% is in your playing. However I recon that 0.01% remaining shows that these are really good pickups. Great video!

After the introduction I'd imagine I like the single rail sounds the least. But man was I wrong. There the best! For both neck and bridge.

A truly incredible job of presenting these pickups' capabilities with an extremely talented guitarist! Highlights for me were your achieving the tone for Pride & Joy, as well as Lights!!! Thank You 😁

Great playing and tones! The neck pickup in particular really sounded amazing! Like how you put the rail closest to the neck

Thanks for this outstanding demo! I've listened to many P-rails demos, and had started to think that they're a cool idea but don't actually sound all that good. Your demo showed me that they're fantastic and versatile pickups in the hands of someone who knows how to make them sing. Bravo!

Great demo! You just convinced me to move forward with installing these in a used player tele deluxe I just grabbed for $200. Excellent tone scapes!

OMFG I am in love, I am going thru a p-90 phase having recently played on them for the first time, but having those wired in series sounds AMAZING, such a throaty, growly sound, with the best articulation and upper mids, those would cut thru any mix or live sound with ease! I know what i am buying next.

Those AC/DC riffs were tasty as hell. Incredible sound!

That was/is the most refreshing demo I've seen...thx

They sound amazining. Fantastic playing

I threw a set of P rails in my Blacktop Tele and I'm obsessed with them now. Fantastic sounding pickups!

wow, how amazingly versatile those things are! I'm gonna use these pups in my next axe, thx for sharing!

Damn dude, your tones are SO killer in this! Great playing too.

That was a fantastic demonstration of both your playing and pickups which is why I picked your vid but your playing mesmerised me . That was seriously excellent

One of the better demos I've ever heard of the P-Rails w/ a triple-shot trim selector. Absolutely, excellent!

DUDE these riffs!!!! This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for this.

Great phrasing and I’m sold. Prails are going in the Epiphone. Upgraded everything with switchcraft push/pull coil split. Going to make sure the blade goes close to the neck like you did. Hopefully, this will be a really nice set up. Thanks for the review.

Thanks for the demo. These are exactly what I want to put in my strat via 920D loaded pickguard.

So happy to find this informative video. I think I will equip one of my Les Pauls with these. Just to have More distinction and diversity.

This demo sold me on these pups. And the fact I’ve never played Duncan’s I didn’t like. The triple shot rings are a game changer.

Great demo, and great playing. Thanks for making this video.

Wow, this is incredible and the best sound demonstration I´ve heard so far of the P-Rails. Great playing!

Hi there! I'm new to your channel but just want to say that this video was totally awesome. I'm researching these pickups for a project I'm thinking of putting together and you have pretty much sold me on them :-) Really dug your playing and the huge array of tones you were getting. Loved hearing the Grand Funk too! Just did a quick glance of your videos and they seem great so I've subscribed. Rock on!

WOW!!!! Great tone!!! My next guitar build will get these machines - thanks for sharing here!

Thanks for the video. It convinced me to get the set as opposed to only the bridge pickup. The versatility is mind boggling tone wise. It sounds like you covered them all guitar wise strat, tele and some serious hard rock and metal tones in humbucker mode. Thanks again for your work.

World class TONE! Thanks for a great video review. P-Rails will be going in my PRS SE Zach Myers guitar soon!

Alright gotta learn that skynryrd song again !! Great rocking man !! Pickups sounds great.

Your playing is seriously kick ass. Pleasure to watch. And that tone is killer

Easily the best demo of these I’ve seen. My dream guitar definitely has a P-Rails in the neck with the 4 way switch 🤤

Thanks for the most comprehensive look at P-rails on the net. I like your playing, too.

Out with the old and in with the new (P RAIL) that is, hopefully my HSS strat will love its new pickup! I can hardly wait. Thanks for an excellent video!

The P-Rail is my FAVOURITE pickup. I have them installed in a Les Paul and it simply sings. I'm about to buy some more to put into my Musicman. Great demo and your playing is superb. I've subscribed to see what other licks I can 'liberate' from you ;-)

Kool guitar, awesome playing, killer review

Great review man! I finally know what to put in my bridge. Thank you

Thanks a lot for this great video. One of the best demos ever. I´d love another one with a clean p90 setting.

You've pretty much just sold me a set of these!!! Amazing 😍

I was reading the comments while listening, and had to scroll up to see what setting you were on, Bridge : Rail and Neck : Rail sounds amazing ! I'm getting a set of these. When these first came out I thought they seemed like a cool idea, a way to have different pickup combos in your guitar without having to add any switches to it, and I was right. great vid.

My fellow Acdc lover! .. i dig the demo and the riffs!

stumbled upon the P Rails by Chance (just got an second Hand epiphone with SD pickups and checking possible Setup/Change possibilities) and got intrigued - this is definitely the best review I've seen of them :) nice Sound.

Very impressive sounding pickups.

This was the perfect video. I was looking for something to give my PRS SE really good "single coil" tone but not giving up the humbuckers. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for the hearties :-) I am strongly considering to change the 57 Classic's in my 1990 Les Pauls Studio to P-Rails... I do not use my tone knobs ever (on none of my 3 guitars), so I could install a 3 Way Switch instead of the tone poentiometers for every pickup (I really hate the idea of the frame switches. I play live a lot and it just screams "BREEAAAAAAAKING IN THE WORST MOMENT!!!!!!!!!" for me). I play a Helix (LT) as well so I could do lots of stuff with the different pickup settings on the guitar in conjunction with my presets. God damn, now I am really teased and curious... Gnahhhh I am going to do it any ways. I know it. Ask me in 10 months, and my Les Paul will sound like a wobbly down tuned Tele with bad strings ^^

I'm returning to this video after about a year after watching this video and running out to install these pickups in my new epi LP Custom. I can't say enough about how great these pickups are. So versatile. I can go from playing ac/d to SRV with the flick or pull of a switch. I had mine put in just like this guy suggested with the neck pickup reversed and I think that made a tremendous difference. Don't hesitate!! This video is legit
