Frank Marino Tone

[YJM]

Is there any duncan pups that can get close to this tone? The live cd I;m talking about and the lead tone. I just rediscovered Frank after years of not listening and always liked his tone.

He played a '61 SG. If the pickups were stock, maybe a set of '59s?

I assume that website is not the Frank Marino you mean! lol

There is a forum here where you can actually ask the real Frank questions;

Re: Frank Marino Tone

For old Frank an SG with an A5 PAF-style pickup should do it for you. More recently (Eye of the Storm, Real Live) he has used SGs with Dimarzios (Virtual 2 bridge, VV 2.2 in neck/middle) though he said routing an SG for those was a nightmare...:crazy:
