Do you like Vintage or Modern sounding pickups?

Re: Do you like Vintage or Modern sounding pickups?

I think vintage pickups sound better under clean tones and high-gain where a lot of definition/lead clarity is needed.

SAME HERE I TOTALLY AGREE WITH BIU....
I PLAYED AN ORIGINAL PRE CBS STRAT THRU MY POD XT 2.0
THE OTHER DAY AND IT SOUNDED AWESOME
ON THE CLEAN JAZZY PATCH, THE SURF PATCH,
AND ON THE HIGH GAIN NU METAL PATCH....
I REALLY THINK THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT VINTAGE PUPS
THAT HAVE THAT VIBE
(ANT'S AND SETHS HAVE THERE OWN SEYMOUR DUNCAN VIBE) :32: :headbang: :bigok:
AND LEW HAS A POINT ABOUT THE NEW AGE PUP'S BEING COMPRESSED
I THINK IT ALL DEPENDS ON YOUR SET UP (GUITAR-EFX-AMP-STYLE)
WELL THATS JUST MY .002 CENTS

i dig modern pickups alot more, in every aspect.
the vintage pickups are sweet, but i dont see myself playing with them just because i cant get the tone i like out of them.
