Fender Custom Shop 54

[wonsup]

Anyone here compared Duncans with Fender Custom Shop 54’s? I’ve decided to go with either Antiquity II, SSL1s and Twangbanger in the bridge, or Fender Custom Shop 54.

I am looking for opinions. I’ve heard Custom 54 and SSL1 and I like them both, but never heard Antiquity IIs. Currently I am leaning towards Custom 54, as it is cheaper ($120) and it sounded

(I play blues, and I don't want real hot wound pickups as they tend to sound compressed and have a lot of mid frequency.)

Bump,

I'm looking for a comparison between the CS54's and SSL1. Wanting Johm Mayer/Frusciante like tones.

How about the Bare Knuckle Pickups "Mother's Milk" set.

Ideally, personally I'm looking for a comparison between the Fenders and the Duncans.
