Passive...
I have removed the gubbins from 2x Ibby SR300s, a P Tonerider and a Stacked Maida Vale J, an Ibby 400 to Dìmarzio Split Coil J, an SR500 to Passive Reverse P Mk1 Barts, and a Epi T Bird Pro to a single Dimarzio Mudbucker... Often simple pickup switch, vol and out... tone elsewhere.
Dynamics... how many tone stacks do you need?
Get it all in, wobble it about, Wah n Phaser, shove it out, bit of fuzz-o-drive... jobs a good un... DI or Whatever ya got!..
Not quite the 'Straight to amp' thread, but not far from it.
Make-a-Move... and enjoy playing.
