    STK-S9 Hot Stack Plus pickup height assistance.

    Hello. I just got this pickup and I have it set fairly low at the moment. I would like to know if these stacks are meant to be set low or do they go higher up like how a humbucker would? If anyone could give me a good starting point please and then I can adjust from there. Thanks!

    SD SSL-5/6 vs Fender Deluxe Drive bridge pickup.

    Hello all. Has anyone had the opportunity to do a comparison? I have the Deluxe Drives in a Strat and was considering swopping the bridge pup for the SSL-5/6. However I am wondering if it may be a pointless exercise if they are too similar. Thanks!

    JB Jr vs Hot Stack Plus

    Hello all. Has anyone tried both of these pups and can offer me a comparison? I'm wanting a Strat bridge pickup with more midrange but that can still do passable cleans now and then. I use a Quilter Tone Block set with a slight mid scoop so pushing the amp into breakup isn't an issue I think I...

    Which one of these Single Coil Sized Humbuckers have the best cleans?

    Hey everyone. Seymour Duncan... 1. Little '59. 2. Cool Rails. 3. Lil Screamin' Demon. Thinking of swopping out the single coil in the bridge of my Strat for one of these. I've narrowed it down to these as I don't want to have a very high output pup as I'd still like to do some clean work...

    Alnico II Pro / Pearly Gates / Whole Lotta Humbucker / Screamin' Demon

    Hey all. Im just curious to know the differences between these bridge pickups. Unfortunately there arent any YouTube videos with a comparison of them. How do they sound with distortion and clean? Which is your preference and why? What kind of guitar do each of these work best in? Thanks!

    Help! SD Alt 8 vs Custom Custom vs which A5 mag pickup?

    Hi all. As some of you may know by now I am on a bridge humbucker search. Reason being for those who don't know is because I am unhappy with the cleans of my current Alternative 8 pickup. However I think it sounds great with distortion. My local store was kind enough to let me borrow a Musis...

    SD Custom Custom vs Dimarzio Norton

    Hello. In another thread of mine I posted about not being happy with my Alternative 8 pup in the bridge of my Fender Blacktop Jaguar. When I emailed SD they recommended the Custom Custom which most of you agreed seems to fit my wants. I decided to email Dimarzio and see what they would...

    Humbucker that reminds one of a single coil pups cleans

    Hey folks. I don't know if this has been asked before but I am curious anyway. In your opinion what humbuckers out there can sound good with high gain but at the same time sound closer to a Strat style single coil when clean. And not with the humbucker split. Thanks!

    Single coil sized humbucker for a Strat.

    Hi all. Very tempted to pickup up a Strat that's in my local store. I played it and I like the cleans but not so much how it sounds with distortion. In another thread I posted asking recommendations for a bridge pickup for my Blacktop Jaguar and the Custom Custom was what most people...

    Recommend me a Bridge Humbucker.

    Hello folks. This is my first post. I play a Fender Blacktop Jaguar and play sort of grunge/alternative rock style of music. I currently have a SD Alternative 8 in the bridge but im not 100% happy with it. Amp wise I am using a Quilter Tone Block 200. I enjoy how the Alt.8 sounds when...
