Features
:
The Artec Hot rail humbucker (ceramic) measures approximately 15.5K, seems to come in solid black color only.....With coil split capability.....
Instrument
:
I used this pickup in the bridge position.....I installed it in a homemade kit guitar and my model 1 Charvel....I replaced stock pickup and GFS Fat Pat...Reason for changing pickups was I needed more power and better tone....
Sound
:
10
The output of this pickup is better than my beloved X2N....This pickup used with the Voodoo Marshall 2205 and my handwired Davis 106 baby plexi.....Ok fellow guitarist got your ears on? In my 37 years of guitar knowledge this includes building guitars from kits and modification of quality tube amplifiers....I have yet to see a pickup out perform this.....It's quiet, powerful, extraordinarily beautiful clean and heavy....Basically a bridge pickup, and the ultimate at that......
Overall Rating
:
10
I have bought several of these and I am not searching for any better sound from the pickup....Like I said look no further you will not be disappointed.....Why are they selling these for $19 on ebay???? I have had pretty much all the great stuff over the years, and can't be more impressed.....I do not in anyway work for any company selling this stuff....I am very thankful for honest Harmony Central reviews to guide me in making good decisions concerning gear, thats all.....Play well my friends....
