I could use some advice regarding a pickup swap I am considering. I have a Hamer Special with maple on mahogany. Stock it has a JB bridge and 59 neck. I have never cared much for the JB by itself. So can anyone give me some hands on opinion on how that might sound? BTW I play southern rock...

I just picked up a Seth Lover bridge on the the "bay" and believe I have a SD59' for the neck (not the Jazz I thought)? Yup, this is for the Echotone (335 clone, 25.5 scale). Has anyone tried this combo? Any thoughts from the pickup experts and 335 clone owners?

I'm looking for a gold Seth Lover bridge and wondered what I should expect to pay?

From all the recent inputs I will be going with the Seth Lover's. Since the guitar is a 335 clone maple body, maple neck and a 25.5 scale I thought I would replace the pots and wiring and I could use some help with pot brand and value.

I have been asking about pu choices for my Hamer Echotone (335 clone?) without realizing that I did not state the scale length. My Echotone is a 25.5 scale not the more recent 24.75. How much difference would this make in my choice and do I need to rethink any choice based on the difference. My...

I'm still struggling with ideas for my Hamer Echotone:banghead: I have a SD Jazz I could put in the neck and wondered how a Jazz would sound in the bridge, (with different magnets?) and what type of tones I would end up with? Has anyone tried one in a 335 clone or other semi hollow?

I picked up an Echotone Aztec Gold and would like to swap pu's. I am thinking a JB bridge and Jazz neck. Anyone tried this in same or 335 clone? Any suggestions for pots and caps also?

Can anyone tell me which SD P90 is closest to a Gibson "Super Vintage" P90? Based on experience.

I need recommendations for my new build. I currently have EPI P90s (from the bin) and would like some ideas for replacements. I play blues and rock with pick and fingers, no metal. Anyone with similar configuration or idea's?

Morning, Mark's tone is very defined, with a smooth overdriven sustain (to my ears) on a Youtube "Telegraph Road great audio". I'm sure his amps have something to do with it but can I get recommendations on pu's that would help with that tone? I use an alder body/maple neck. MM112RD50, Carvin...

Looking for complmentary pu's for middle and neck on alder w/maple neck. Tex Mex in now are spitty and ice pick when overdriven! Need smooth overdrive! Rig includes MM112RD50, Carvin VT50, Zendrive, Blues Driver and Nobels ODS. My bucker guitars sound great but the Tex Mex pu's in the strat...
