It's been SO long since I've played a Hybrid.
Has anyone here compared one to the Brobucker? Which has more push? More sparkle? More output?

Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?
To my ears they both sound dark or for a better term they both sound warm. If saving a few bucks was an issue I'd go the the hybrid. They do sound similar to me.Last edited by 51501984; 04-12-2012, 12:48 PM.When asking for pickup suggestions please tell us what amp you`re using -
Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?
warm? the 59/custom warm? I wouldn't say that at all, actually. powerful with lots of presence, imho
anyway. I have heard a broB. before, and it was a bit too goowy for my taste. the hybrid is tighterComment

I mainly have A2 in my Hybrids... the Brobucker has a similar tonal balance with it's aged A5, but it doesn't have the clarity...
Sounds great in certain guitars... definitely in my top 10 humbuckers!GMP Guitars RULE!Comment

Unbalanced coils from two bright PU's, with an A5...where does the 'warm' come from?Originally posted by orpheo View Post"Completely Conceded Glowing Expert."

Wish they'd make the Brobucker a regular production pickup, seems like it hits a niche no one is hitting at the moment, but not as many as going to pony up for the double price.Comment

Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?
My SDunc hybrid isnt warm- tone-y maybe, but very bright & sparkly & rich. Very top shelf high quality & dimensional on a my cheapo dead buzzy stringed beater.
Warmer but BEEFIER with Alnico 8.
Ive never tried Brobucker.
When the question comes up: "i play rock, rocknroll, blues rock, some blues, classic rock... Every now & then I play a bit of old sk00l metal- Scorps-Halen: what pickup do I want?",... I think Im gonna answer hybrid.••••••••••••••••••••••

Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?
I too prefer the A2 in the hybrid. I like the fact that it stays true CC on one coil and the other becomes a warmer 59bOriginally posted by BachToRock View Post

Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?

Re: Any of you fellas compare a Brobucker to a Hybrid?
Differing reports on that, I think Evan said it's symmetrical, along with all Duncans, but I'm positive mine is not.Comment
