      Re: SDUG New Forum Pickup

      another quick question: supposedly fender mustangs use the same pickup as a strat so it would work in there right? If so I would probably buy at least two...

        I see no reason not to, all that's important is the route and the string spacing.

        The thing with the Tele bridge is that the dimensions are much too different, as is the construction...

          I'm in. I'll fine somewhere to use it. Or it might sit beside my BroBucker on the shelf waiting for the perfect application.

          I've bought both SDUGF Pups so far, so I'm in for this one too!

          Let get to it!

              Ah, you guys have convinced me. I'm game for this pickup!

              But I still think the other rooms should have a thread to enlighten those that might not frequent the PU room as much.. We need some economies of scale!


              Is it possible to use a standalone switch for this pickup? I know you can use push pull (I have another guitar with that), but you know... More visible switches = cooler.

                I see no reason why not.
                Besides a push pull isn't anything more/less than a switch in a different form.

                I am not the biggest fan of push/pulls either so I tend to use switches too instead.

                  It really didnt take much convincing for me. I just dont want to miss out on a special pickup...

                    All right, good good.

                    Well, I have spent a bit on gear lately, so I was debating with myself whether I needed this pickup at all.......... You guitarists know how that debate goes, of course...

                    But really. The bridge single coil is the one I use the least... I do like it notched with the middle though... But I could conclude it'd be nice to have more balls in the bridge!

                      How many "yes'es" do we need to get to make this happen? I've got an empty Reverend pickguard itching for one of these @ the neck, and a P-Rails @ the bridge



                      (fingers crossed - not 1 finger saluting... I just re-read the post and went Doh!)

                        I'm pretty sure the smiley WAS supposed to be "fingers crossed", just that there's not much to do with so few pixels there

                        Now, I ain't no official nor have I any insight in this but I'd think 100+ pickups would be a good enough number so, maybe 45-50 guys saying they'll buy at least 1-3 pickups (hopefully 2+ rather than 1-2)

                          Love to get one, but I have no idea if I can afford it now.

                              I'll get two if the price is right... Even though I only have 1 strat... Maybe in the neck and bridge? Like a strat and a les paul junior in the same axe? Eh, nevermind, I'll get two just for the hell of it. Plus, if it turns out well, there'll be high demand in the trade post so I can at least recoup my funds.

                                I'd only be able to swing one, but I'd be in for one definetly!
