Dimarzio FS-1 Noiseless Alternative?

[WillG]

Does anyone here know of a noiseless alternative to the Dimarzio FS-1 pickup? I don't care what brand, just looking for something that sounds similar.

DiMarzio Injector

The injector has an alnico 2 magnet though. With gain, does it get fizzy like most of the alnico 2 pickups or does it behaves well like the FS-1? Other then the magnets, the specs of the injector match perfectly those of the FS-1.

Paul Gilbert used Injectors on Fuzz Universe album.

Bill Lawrence L-250's, many different Lace Sensors, and Fender's noiseless SCN series of pickups are exceptionally quiet and good sounding units - all have clarity, definition, and power without using batteries. Fishman Fluence also makes quiet units, but they run on batteries. And then there's Bartolini.... You can run w/ batteries or without. My guess is Lindy Fralin makes some quiet units, too - but I'm only familiar with his Noiseless P-90's.

Custom Stack Plus STK 6 (ie noiseless SSL 5) will fit the bill perfectly. There’s tons of overlap bt the SSL 5 and FS 1
