Re: Anyone tried CRCoils Pickups?

the crossroads are my babies! i told jim i wanted the p'ups in clapton's painted by "the fool" sg that he played almost exclusively for a year and a half, fromjust before cream came to nyc to record disraeli gears. goddamned if he didn't nail them right on the head! i wanted to call them the "wheels of fire" set, but jim like crossroads better; good call, 'cause geoff teese wound up calling my wah by that name! jim, btw, also winds the BEST single coils on the


mlplanet, called the SR set!

Hey muddy, nice to see you on the Duncan forums, I know you from the Gear Page

That Wheels of Fire wah sounded absolutely killer that you invented with Teese, I wish I could get ahold of one now

Not everyone will try WCR pickups based upon the fact that Jim is not as well known as Dimarzio or Duncan, but he WILL be... mark my words... his pups are too good not to be.

Yea that's me 29 years ago!
Question? Twiggs only spoke of 2 Gold Tops and the one with the frets beat into the back that I'm playing there. Can anyone refer me to some pictures of the Cheryburst?

Tweed Thanks soooo much. The one on the right is the one I played. In one pic of me I'm pointing to the scratch about 1" from the end pin. The scratch is visible in the B&W bathroom shot with Duane. It is also visible in this shot

goto 80s and 90s and scroll till you see it.
At first glance the one I'm playing looks like the one on the left but it is the one on the right before it got scratched...WOW!

The Fillmore video which was recorded after the album Flame is not apparent but the Klusons are. I thought for many years the video was earlier due to the abbreviated song structure and the keys until I read something about the video in Hitting the note. Your pic clears that up...the video is the Faded Cherry.

Okay Darkburst on Lala, Duane returned to finish up the 2nd album with the Darkburst. So what is Fillmore and Eat a Peach?

The headstock had been broken off of the Darkburst and glued back on when I played it. Thanks Chuck

Re: Anyone tried CRCoils Pickups?

I never really accepted that there were two sunburst LPs until I saw Tweeds pic (Thanks – Thanks – Thanks Dude).

The Layla abum pictures you can see the Grover keys (Darkburst) and I think those picks are accurate date wise. This supports Twiggs story… according to Twiggs Duane left to do Layla with the second Gold Top and came back with the Darkburst - Gullwing.

The Layla album cover was printed in 1970 so where did that May of 71 thing come from?

I just looked at the Fillmore Album and sure enough those are Klusons, but are those pics are accurate date wise?
