Help needed About Pickups
I just a got a Fernandes Dragonfly Electric Guitar and it has 2 single coil pickups and 1 humbucker... I wanted to know which Seymour Duncan Humbucker should i get because i want more power and distortion in the sound...i want to play like iron maiden......the single coils and the humbucker are made by Fernandes and are covered...

That alone isn't going to prevent you from playing like Iron Maiden...Originally posted by Ahmadali
I don't know what the output of the Fernandes pickups is, but from the sound of it, what you are looking for are very high output pickups. My suggestion would be to go for something like the SD Distortion Trembucker and something like the SD Li'l Screamin' Demon to replace the single coils. However, with the latter, you'll lose the tradtional single coil sound...
Take a look at SD's spec sheet: http://www.basslines.com/website/tonechart.shtml#hum to get an idea of the outputs of the individual pickups.
Hope that helps! -

Re: Help needed About Pickups
To my ears it sounds as if he is using a Distortion....maybe JB. The bridge pup has a lot of grind and output. The neck and middle sound like a SSL1.Originally posted by Ahmadali
