hi, ive been kind of bored lately and decided to make a frankenstein replica, ive already painted a fender strat body white with black stripes, and set it up pretty well, all i need now is a pickup. i want the closest i can get to the 1st van halen album tone, i already have a marshall tsl100 head with some ****ty peavey cab. i asked gibson and they said to get a 57 classic plus and wax pot it, then angle it a little bit onthe strat. i then called seymour duncan and one guy told me a custom, and the other guy told me a custom custom. ive already taken out the custom from my choices because of the ceramic magnet, so is there any advice anyone could give me? thanx alot.

Re: eddie van halen pickup
This issue has been debated here, especially by devout "magnet swappers", but I'd say to use either of these. EVH Custom Shop, Custom 5 (Custom w/Alnico 5 mag),
or a Custom Custom, but only if you have a bright maple necked frankenstrat.
I'd stick with one of those 3. I'm a big fan of Marshalls, and the VH tone in general, and swear by C-5's.Originally posted by Boogie BillI've got 60 guitars...but 49 trumpets is just...INSANITY! WTF!
