: : Your talking about coil tapping, and its not just on one pickup, its on any pickup you wire for coil tapping. WIth the right pickup it could very helpful.

: Interesting... Then, if you wire a pickup for taping, on the single coil mode it will act *EXACTLY* like a silgle coil pickup, and the same with the humbucker mode?

Not quite, the humbucker will sound right but unless you have a very high output pickup the single coil position will be thinner and smaller sounding than a good conventional single coil. A Seymour Duncan JB is an example of a humbucker that taps well.
