True Stereo means that 2 separate signals leave your git, left and right. (Rickenbacker makes these, but they refuse to sell their pickups alone). So the signal on the 2 bari guitars I made leaves the git through a stereo socket, plug and cable and goes to a splitter box sold with the pickups. Then I just run a normal guitar cable to a bass amp on the left and a guitar amp to the right.

True Stereo starts with the signal being created at your guitar. I bought pickups from stereopickups dot com, Ultramagnetics dot com.  The pickups are the normal size, but inside the chromed cover strings 1-3 are not connected at all to strings 4-6. Yes, when cranked, there is a bit of overlap between strings 4 and 5, but not during normal clean playing.

Lots of folks will not tell you the truth about what I call "true stereo". Many stompbox makers say they make your guitar output stereo, but it is really your mono guitar signal going to 2 speakers.

Pretty git and nice setup.  Band sounds GOOD!

This time that stereo pick up split up comes out better stereo pickup is that your own invention? must be a tricky job in soldering the wirering on that one, cant you get that effect whit a stereo out stomp box whit two amps ?its stil  is a nice effect especialy when you switch on the fuzz,and when you perform you do vocals  and mouthharp aswell?
