Title: Richards MP2 Patches
Post by: rnolan on December 12, 2013, 10:52:15 PM
Ok at Wills request here are the 3 MP2 patches I currently use, these patches are for Ultasonic Reference Series pick ups which aren't made anymore.  The early Tom Anderson guitars had them, now he makes his own.  They are very "flat" pickups not middy like other PUs so you may have to compensate a little to get the best from these patches. :thumb-up:

My Clean sound (Note: this also relies on particular guitar settings.  Ultrasonic PUs (3s ie single coil shaped but dual coil), Neck Series, Middle Parallel
(and it's as low as I can make it in the guitar so I don't hit it with the pick (ala Blackmore)))  Bridge off. Very "glassy" sound.  On my Anderson, each PU
has a 3 pos switch, down coils in series, middle off, up coils in parallel

No worries, you may have to tweak the gain and eq a bit for your PUs, the Ultrasonics I use are quite high output and very flat.  I also add a bit of light delay and reverb from the Quadverb.
