    No real cons. Pretty inexpensive to try on your guitar.

    Look for the Highway One wiring diagrams here.

    Welcome to the Forum. I own a HWY 1 Stratocaster with the Greesebucket. I like it. Better than just tone nobs that sometimes adds bass to the tone. The Greesebucket just tapers "rolls" the highs off.

      Depends on the pickups you have as to how good it works. I think colbalts or overwound hot pickups are best. All has to do with loading and maintaining a load on the circut and letting the unwanted to bleed through.
