My luthier friend has a pretty good collection of vintage USA Dano's, so he gave me this MIK. (I love MIK's.)
The lipstick humbuckers are pretty unique. If I had to, I'd describe them as Jazz lites. They are definitly low output, but in a good way. I generally run my amp volume at 9 o'clock for home listening. With these, I did 12 o'clock for the same volume. These are what the Duncan Pickup Booster was made for.
The upper tone is a push-pull that splits both for a classic twin-single Dano vibe. The lower tone is a push-pull that makes the bridge pup OOP. But since it doesn't have much bass to begin with, there's very little cancellation. It just changes the tone. It's like getting two pickups in one.
The spring on the "Bigsby" is stiff. I could build my bicep if did much tremolo.
Cool, sweet axe. Especially for a freebie. (We trade stuff back and forth all the time.)
