    Are the Suhr Aldrich a good alternative for the EMGs 81/85?

    I know the 81 is ceramic vs the Aldrich with Alnico V, but im talking about having enough output. I also know the 81 is quite unique but i just dont want to go the active route again and i heard good opinions about the Aldrich humbuckers. btw the guitar would be a Les Paul Custom thru a JCM 800.

    Tell me about the Skinnerburst set, please

    Whats the deal with these? Are they just a pair of Antiquities with A3? Any experience? Worth putting them on a '13 Traditional? I enjoy the Classic 57, but i wanted to try something a little more refined. THANKS!

    Humbucker suggestion to replace Custom 5

    Hey guys, i have a Charvel San Dimas. Alder body, maple neck (very THIN and fast), 1 humbucker and 1 volume. Standard tremolo. Currently it has a Custom 5, and i like that humbucker but i want something with more mids, basically. I think its great for recording, but im in a 2 guitar band and it...

    Angus's tone with a Gibson Dirty Fingers?

    Whats your take on that? I have a friend that told me it could be great, but i know his actual pickup is a low output one. On a Gibson SG of course.

    Ive been searching for a cool set of Greenie humbuckers and it seems some manufacturers offer em with Alnico II and others with Alnico V. What kind were the originals?

    BKP Mules the way to go?

    Hey guys, how is it going? Im using a Gibson LP Trad 2013 for recording. Its a nice guitar and it currently has Classic 57. Altough i like the pickups and i did record most of the rhytm parts with it, i have 2 issues: - id like a more "refined" tone for lead parts. The 57 are great but i find...

    Gibson Angus Young on a Strat..?

    Sup guys. A good friend of mine offered me a AY Signature humbucker for the bridge of my Strat. Its MIA, with original Floyd Rose, 2 single coils and a DiMarzio H8 in the bridge. Rosewood fingerboard. Great guitar for sure. Should i give it a shot? Is it like a JB or something like that? I...

    Humbucker recommendation for dark/mid heavy Les Paul

    Hey, i currently have a LP Standard Faded as my main guitar. It has a Van Zandt Trubucker in the bridge and a WCR Crossroads in the neck. I've had this guitar for 5 or 6 years so maybe i just got used to it, but lately im finding the tone is way too middy/dark/hot. I was considering a Peter...

    Alnico 2 Pro in a Les Paul Custom (maple neck)?

    Would it be a good choice? or 59s? Its a '78 LPC, maple neck with stock pickups. I do like em, but for the gig im playing they are a too weak. I'd like something more powerful but without going into JB/Custom territory. I just use a boost/EQ pedal for lead playing and directly into a JMP.

    Dirty Fingers in the bridge, i need a good match for the Neck!

    I decided on the Gibson Dirty Fingers in the bridge of my Les Paul Custom (its a 78', maple neck). I like the 59' in the neck but i'd like something with the same vibe but more powerful. Whats your suggestion?

    Whats with the Duncan "Greenie"?

    To be honest i didnt even know they made this one! Im interested in the NECK, what can you tell me about it? Is it really a PGn with the magnet flipped? Thanks.
