In this video we take a look at parallel mode for humbuckers, and run through how it changes the sound, compared to the more 'standard' series mode.
We used the Silo humbucker set, loaded into an Ibanez RG to demonstrate the range of tones available.

Running your humbucker set in parallel mode is a great way to add some extra tonal flavours to your guitar, while retaining the pickups' hum-cancelling effect. You can achieve this through a variety of different switching options (such as toggle switches, push-pulls or premium pickup selectors), allowing you to switch between both series and parallel modes.
