Features
:
Humbucker based on Vintage Pickups.
Output neck - 250Mv, Bridge - 350Mv.
Developed as a replica of the original' 59 Pickups, they have great clarity and very sweet tone.
Very mild sounding Pickups. I replaced my Dimarzio Evolutions in my Ibanez. What a hugh difference it made, very warm, Clear tone, plenty of clarity.
Instrument
:
As stated above I have an Ibanez RGT42, neck through body.
I have a 5 way switch, so you get, 5 - Bridge Hum, 4 - Bridge single coil, 3- bridge and neck Single coil, 2 - Neck single coil, 1 - Neck hum.
Wow talk about versatile, I can now get any tone for these Pickups.
You know changing your pickups is the easiest way to get a great new tone.

It has a moderate output.
It would be describe as a warm tone, very vintage, think old Les Paul tones.
I play classic rock, lots of Guitar solos. ACDC, ZZ Top, Led Zep.
I get great sustain, long ringing tones.
These pickups are new to the market, I believe they will only increase as more people find out about them.
Overall Rating
:
10
I have been playing Guitar for 30 years.
I have replaced my pickups so many times, I have lost track.
These are up with the best of the big boys, but are so reasonably priced.
They are hand made, now look around for hand made pickups and they triple the price of any normal pickup.
Give them a try you will love them.
