Hi, I'm a first time poster, long time lurker.
As the title suggests, I've got an old Duncan Custom 4 wire pickup marked DCJ on the back, and I'm wondering if it would be a good match with my Dot Studio.
This particular Epiphone is all mahogany. It plays well, but sounds very dark and muddy. I remember this pickup sounding bright in a home made guitar made with red Meranti from a hardware store. I was young.
I was also thinking of putting an SD jazz pu in the neck.
My amps are old school Mesa Boogie, an EL 84 .50 caliber with no eq, a Quad preamp running through a 50/50 and metal grill half back cabs.
I'm looking for that Alex Lifeson sound from Permanent waves, and maybe a little Rockabilly with some coil tapping.
What do you think?
