Muddiest Pickup

[boingboing]

Hello, I just received my Invader today, and, I really like it, but I didn't find it muddy...

So is there a muddier pickup out there from your experiences?

Tone Zone with Alnico 5? (which I've never tried)

By ear, I thought the Custom 5 sounded quite heavy on the Audio Samples page too.

Thank you!

Are you looking for a muddy pup? Because some of the stock BC Rich pups are muddy!

Hi, yeah I am!

That's very possible, my friend has a cheap BC Rich and his sounded bright though

Oh, maybe not finally, since my friend plays with his amp cranked up on treble...

^ that was what came to mind for me, too. in my case i think the guitar in question was a dog, but i did think of that same pickup

The Kramer Quadrails are as muddy as a very muddy thing. Just terrible and undefined..

That was the only thing I didn't like about my mockingbird. a Bill Lawerence xl500 and Jazz later , no more mud, just thud.

Stock Epiphone neck pu (ceramic). Like the tone is perpetually rolled off.

Yeah, I hated my neck pickup too... some neck pickups choices are really wierd sometimes... especially for the neck, which is a more delicate decision than the bridge, for me...

!!!

I like the way Epiphones sound... they sound really smooth!

Yeah Epiphone stock pups are pretty much the muddiest pickups I've ever tried.

Haven't you heard? It's the latest tonal trend. All the best bands are using it.
