The Cygnus is a bright, clear guitar with a lot of high end sparkle.  The pickups should not be confused with Gibson-style mini humbuckers.  According to the Lollar site the "Firebird® Humbucker Pickups use a unique design with a sound that resembles a fat single-coil more than a full-size humbucker."  

We have added a series/parallel switch to the tone control and activating series mode is like hitting an instant fat switch producing a thick warm creamy tone.  This dramatically increases the versatility of the Cygnus.
