Re: enlighten me please
Hello and welcome....Well...First you have to know what you dislike about your current pickups and then based on your style and your favorite players decide on what your new pickups will do...
Some examples would be....More note clarity,more lows,darker tone,brighter tone,more mids,more output,.....First try to find out specifically what your favorite players use and then narrow things down..

Hey, welcome to the board. Duncan provides a great range of pickups, covering every style and guitar. What kind of guitar do you play, whats your musical style, and what amps/effects are you running through? This will help us figure out some options for your guitar.This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfections. - St. Augustine of Hippo
