SDUG New Forum Pickup

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

Very interested here but i have a few questions... How hot will it be and will it go good in the bridge with my neck and middle surfers?

how hot it is will be determined but it should be similar to a p90. hopefully it will match beautifully in the bridge with the surfers neck and middle

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

In all honesty, when we said the "that will work equally well both in the neck to match with a bridge humbucker or in the bridge to match with single coils." I immediately thought a pickup that at the bridge will match the surfers and other vintage output SC and at the neck to match a rockish pickup, from the P-Rails to the JB and Custom (5 / Custom)

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

I don't think I would be interested, but I have a question.. What tones (what styles is it appropriate for?) can I expect using that pickup in the bridge position of an ash Strat? I don't really have much experience with P90s at all..

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

well the two sounds are going to be classic/vintagy strat and p90 so if you use it in the neck youll get a nice stratty tone and a fat p90 tone that should match up well with a bucker in the bridge. in the bridge youll get a fat p90 tone and the stratty tone to keep the notch position nice and clucky.

i plan on using it in the bridge position of a strat

What he said
Plus, with an Ash body you can expect a more snappy response compared to an Alder body. That combined with the fatness of the P90 should result in a really balanced tone.

Hey, I actually like this a lot!
(Maybe it's finally time for an Ash Strat instead? )

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

this idea is so perfect... i will be using it in the bridge, i was originally going to go with a harmonic design s-90 but this would be much better and from how it looks not very much more cash

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

I have been looking for just the right pickup for a H/S/H guitar with a TB4b and a APH-1n. I was debating between the SSL6 and the SL59-1 lil' 59' for the middle posistion but this SDUGF pickup seems like it maybe just the pickup I am looking for So I would be down for getting one, although I would like to see what you guys seem to recomend?

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

I'm in! Do I put it in the neck and keep the Twangbanger in the bridge, or put it in the bridge and try the Twanbanger in the neck????

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

I'm thinking about it... It looks promising...


On a side note, is it any possibility for hot linking this thread, so that you can have a stickies in all rooms that connect to this one? Might catch up a few more potentials perhaps..

Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

This could be the coolest CS run yet.

I didn't want a Crazy 8, but this sounds incredible.

That's the idea!!!

And it's different from the P-Rails 'cause it's a true "Fender" sized single coil... so you don't have to carve up a 'yer '66 Strat and get a new pickguard. AFAIK, there's nothing out there for a Strat bridge slot that sounds like a P90, which is just a good solid "rock" pickup.

I'm in for at least two... maybe three or four depending on what it costs & how much scratch I have when it comes into being. I've wanted something like this for a few years.


BTW - Would, or I guess... how possible would it be to get a Tele bridge version wound up as an option for those who want it? Or is that making it too complicated?
