I am looking for some suggestions on some Duncan pups for my SG double neck kit from RAS Guitars. Questions in particular would be: (1) For the 12-string side, What would you suggest for a clean, bright pup set that would complement a 12-string. (2) for the 6-string side, something that isn't over the top but would have a good bluesy tone without being overpowering. (3) and if I mix-match pups, will I have to consider carefully planning the wiring setup. This is my first kit build and wanted to build something kinda special. What would you guys suggest?

Re: Thoughts on Pups for a SG double neck kit
I'd almost suggest the same thing for both necks. The Seth's would be my pick. You could just lower the 12 string ones to get a little more articulation.
Perhaps another option is to go what would have been in there originally - a T-top (or very close to). I've just recently I've done the T-top mod to a 490R.....putting in a short A5 magnet. If you pick low K rated ones they're pretty close to that snarly 70's tone.

I would go with either "59's or Pearly Gates for the 6 string and probably 59's for the 12 as well. Can't wait to see finished pics!! Perhaps you could post some pics of your build progress in the guitar section. I would love to see them.
