      First move is to see if I like it better than the C/59 hybrid in an Am. Std. Strat. Then, see if it beats a roughcast unoriented magnet Custom 5 in a Les Paul.
      This.

      I'm very happy with the C/59 I have in my MIJ 62 RI, but it's been a few weeks since I bought new pickups.

          Gearhounds does this thing where they list a new unreleased item as ready to ship, before it is actually ready to ship. They did this to me when I ordered a Black Winter set. They did make things right in the end though.



          I hope to try the PB eventually. It would probably do great in my backup guitar, maybe by the time it's released I'll have some extra cash.

          FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! DC RESISTANCE DOES NOT DETERMINE ACTUAL OUTPUT OF A PICKUP.

            I bet that's not enough and somebody's gonna put A8 or UOA5 in it

              Yes, the Perpetual Burn is production and will street $94.95. It will come in regular or trem, black, white, zebra and for regular you'll be able to get it in blue/pink combo. It will likely be shipping and officially announced with more details/video at the end of this month.
              No trem spacing for the blue/pink? Any plans for it in the future...sort of ironic

                Not immediately but I'll keep asking for it. As you know Trem color options are limited to Black, White, Zebra, RZ, Nickel, Gold, and we have a few Neon Pink and Neon Green bobbins.

                  I think I'm going to have to build myself a new guitar just to put this pickup in it!

                    You guys really need to switch over to the same size bobbin, but with wider pole spacing for tremspaced (ala DiMarzio, Suhr, Motor City, etc).

                    Ever try to stuff a Trembucker into a metal pickguard?

                        In regards to those asking about TB bobbin colors, it's probably not economically realistic. Volume of sales for TB's has to be significantly lower than the standard size. They probably order bobbins in huge lots. SD has to make the smart buy.

                        Not sure why they have them in neon pink and green though.

                          "It has the thick beef and balls that we metal players and old Van Halen fans like, plus a sweet, clear and crisp, yet warm lead tone."
                          Good to hear. Judging from that I assume is doesn't get as muddy as the JB?

                              This could be right up someone alley for a beefier Jem, Vai type of tone perhaps. Sound like it would be cool to give it a go!

                              If a positive attitude is a Magnet for positive results, what type positive attitude sounds best, A2, A5, UOA5, A8, C8, or?

                                Scott, is it safe to assume this pickup will bring out some nice harmonics?
                                Hmm.....12.11k with an emphasis in the upper mids. Makes me wonder if a Screamin' Demon in the neck would make a good match?
