Re: Pickup Identification
Thanks to everybody who responded, and I hope you enjoyed playing "guess the pickup". I know most guitarists on the web are negative on this pickup, but ironically it's the one pickup that I get the most positive comments on, even over my Duncan and Gibson pickups on other guitars. Maybe it's the interplay with the Tele, or the light overdrive on a Fender tube amp. The only "cheating" I do is use an EQ between the guitar and amp to brighten the pickup and give more definition to the bass. At least I can now respond better when they ask about the pickup.
