Re: classic rock pup thread
As Benjy says, depends on the guitar. I favour Les Pauls and therefore humbuckers....
As Jeff says, Seths, Antiquities and '59s are all great. Alnico II Pros are excellent too. Depends on the tone you are after. Ants are warm, '59s are bright. Seths and A2 Pros sit somewhere in the middle - to my ears the Seths are slightly warmer.
The other likely candidates, humbucker-wise, are the Pearly Gates - I haven't tried those.
