Full Shred or Screamin Demon with A2 magnet?

Re: Full Shred or Screamin Demon with A2 magnet?

The Demon is wound with 43AWG wire as apposed to 42AWG. It's thinner. The Custom series and Full Shred are also wound with 43AWG. The kicker is, the Demon's coils are not filled up with the wire so there's less winds. Now, add in the A5, screw and hex poles. The description of it fits.

I have 2, one in the neck and one in the bridge, of my #1 Frankenstrat. There doesn't need to be a neck version. It is an amazing neck pickup as it is. Try it, you'll be surprised.

I don't find it too bright at all. Could be how I EQ my amp. It does cut through the mix well, no doubt there, but I wouldn't call it sharp. It *can* be, but so can any pickup if the amp is EQ'd that way.

I do have a pair of Screaming Demons in a Les Paul and while I really like it, I am still looking for desiring something more from it. The bridge is not too bright for me. I actually love the EQ curve on the demon in the bridge.

So my question now is, does the Full Shred Neck also use 43AWG?

No, the neck version uses AWG#42 Poly wire.

I bet a Demon A2 would be a great neck pickup to match with a Demon A8 at the bridge.

A normal Demon pairs pretty well with an El Diablo in the bridge. Original El Diablo, not the Iomi/Ian version.

HTH,

Damn it! no wonder. I had a FS neck in my Gold Top a few years back and although I liked it, it didn't really nock me out. From what I can recall of the FSn, I actually think the Demon has more character than it.
