There's a lot of info online about the history of replacement humbuckers, but I'm having a harder time finding the history of single coils. Unfortunately the Duncan product history website seems to be broken: https://www.seymourduncan.com/blog/s...uncan-products
What single coils were typically paired with JB's and Super Distortions for 80's HSS guitars? I can gather at least SSL-1, SSL-5, SDS-1, and of course stock Fender pickups were available.
An example of a sound I'd like to reproduce is here for the tapping in the Top Gun Anthem, at ~3:15 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCTJmXrgsFg
This was recorded in 1985 with a Charvel with no middle pickup, a JB and an "SSL type" neck pickup. Is it possible to hear through all those effects if it is likely an SSL-1 or SSL-5? Thanks for the help!
