Re: Lollar Pickups?
I don't have experience with their humbuckers or singles but I do have a custom wound tapped P90 from them in my SG Jr. When I was looking for a pickup for it, I looked around at a few places and Jason was able to wind one for me that nailed what I was looking for. I'm quite happy with it.

Re: Lollar Pickups?
Thanks, it sounds like they do lots of custom work. A slightly different sound for their strat pickups than SD although for my next guitar I think I will stick with the SSl1's (maybe 2's?) but really consider the Regal humbucker as my bridge pickup. I don't know enough of about pickups so my guitar tech will give some advice although someone did say going "flat" on the SSL1 gets me an SSL2 and that has a little more punch on the bass? If so maybe I can use an SSL2 as my bridge pickup.

Re: Lollar Pickups?
I bought a Charlie Christian, witch I dropped on my Tele , and Love that PuP !!!
also I owned a P-90 , that I tryed to swap magnets, and I end up screwing the Pup, I sent it back for repairs, and they just
call me back, telling me , that they were sending a new one as a replacement..... Their Custom services is great, my next Lollars
will be a set of Imperials !!!

Re: Lollar Pickups?
I've tried several Lollars...Strat and Tele pickups as well as P-90's and Humbuckers and I have not yet been rally impressed with a Lollar pickup.
Not bad really but not amazing, at least to me...and certainly not worth what they cost IMHO.If you just read a post by The Guy Who Invented Fire please understand that opinions change, mind sets change and as players our ears mature...not to mention our needs grow and change. With that in mind, today I may or may not agree with the post you just read!

Re: Lollar Pickups?
I have a Lollar '51 style P-Bass pickup in my '51 Reissue P-Bass. I love it and would recommend it to anyone looking for that pickup. I have a thing for pre '57 style P-Basses and the Lollar pickup so far is my favorite version of it. I have not tried their guitar pickups but when I finally get my PRS EG hardtail, I will give their strat pickups a try. Plus they are a local company for me so I get to support a local business just like I get to do with TV Jones pickups.
Good luck on finding the sound you are looking for.
