I was reading the Warren Haynes interview on the SD site. He mentioned having Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbuckers in his Firebirds. I've never seen such a pickup on the site. Are these Custom Shop pups?

Re: Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbuckers
The Antiquity Firebirds are A2. Great sound! Are you sure he's not meaning Firebirds but saying mini's? After all, he uses Firebird guitars."One other thing... I think it rips through your clothes when it takes you over...."

Re: Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbuckers
Gibson calls Firebird pickups minihumbuckers. I don't think he means the ones with adjustable polepieces like the LP Deluxe.Originally posted by rhmcfarlandSteve

Re: Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbuckers
Are you sure it's not a misprint? Antiquity firebird pickups are in the Antiquity II line. He could have a standard Antiquity Firebird pickup in there. It could refer to the Antiquity II line.Gibson LP Melody Maker -- stock, Epiphone Dot -- Jazz neck and '59 bridge, Fender Telecaster Blackout Deluxe -- stock, 90's MIM Standard Strat with Duncan Texas Hot Custom in the bridge.Comment

"My 1964 Firebird III has an Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbucker in the neck, and my 1997 tobacco sunburst Firebird has an Alnico II Pro Mini-Humbucker in the bridge."
