I believe that the Bartolini used in the Schwabs is a guitar mini-humbucker with a twin blade design. #I occasionally use the coil tap, but it isn't meant to give single coil sound, AFAIK. #It gives a reduced output, since the coil is tapped with fewer windings than the regular output. #It would be useful if you switched from lead to rhythm and wanted a cleaner, quieter tone. #In my band, I play lead all the time so it's not really an issue.
