So i am a guitarist
I love music, and play all the stuff i like
I play punk(70's),grunge,alternative,hard rock,classic rock, metal, thrash metal, and melodic death metal.
Recently however, i was jamming with some friends (three guitarists including me, a bassist, and a drummer)
And one of the guitarists starts some blues going.
Everyone else joined in, but not me. I had no idea what to play. But when they showed me some basic blues stuff(im mostly self taught, so i never had exposure to that stuff) i ******* LOVED playing it
But i can't stand listening to it........

Whats up??
I know most of my music has evolved from Blues origins, but then why do i not like to listen to it?

NOW IM GUNNA TRY AND GET A FEW QUESTION IN ONE TO SAVE POINTS SEEING AS I HAVE MUSICIANS LOOKING HOPEFULLY

What do you prefer for humbuckers. I like EMGs, but there the only ones iv used. My dad and brother swear by DiMarzio, and a few friends use Seymore Duncan.

Is it possible to wire two humbuckers and one single coil?(reverse fat-strat concepts)

Are there any heads that have four outs so i could play through two stacks at once, if not is it possible to do it with something else?

What would be the best way to wire these pedal :
DigiTech Whammy Pedal
Dunlop Crybaby 535Q Multi-Wah Pedal
Visual Sound Visual Volume Pedal
Boss RC-50 Loop Station
Boss Mt-2 Metal Zone Distortion Pedal
Boss RV-5 Digital Reverb Effects Pedal
Boss CE-5 Chorus Pedal
Boss BF-3 Flanger Pedal
Boss DD-7 Digital Delay Pedal
Boss TU-12 Chromatic Tuner
MXR M-135 Smart Gate Pedal
Boss CS-3 Compression Sustainer Pedal
I know the volume goes first, and that has an extra out for my tuner.
The looper goes last, Smart Gate, second to last, the whammy and wah go third/four to last.
Apart from that im kinda cluesless how to do it best.

blues revolves around scales and once you get them down they are fun and almost addicting to play, and i know excactly what you mean when you talk about that.

Blues is fun and easy,more of a fill thing.pentatonic scales and bends,for the pick-up question , a friend of mine would do the craziest stuff to his guitar example;hook them together put pots -switches..hook up stereo jack to them ,run two amps. the thing is how tedious the soldering must be ,as for the pedals I only uses a overdrive unit. to much of that stuff doesn't give me the raw sound I like..
