Pearly Gates neck pup

BloodRose

Professional Scapegoat
Does this pup have single coil vibe to it? Im running one in the neck and get a single-esq tone out of it. Same as a Paf PRo dimarzio.. Just wondering if I have it wired right? Its good I mean.

The Pearly Gates neck and Alnico 2 Pro neck have both been described here, by users, as having a little tiny bit of a single coil vibe...I think the A2Pro neck especially. Lew
 
Re: Pearly Gates neck pup

I'm gonna install my new pearly gates tomorrow in a gibson and then i will look how it sounds! I hope that it will have the single-coil vibe, i did order it after your suggestions - something like a jazz neck, just with more "meat" ;-)
Just can't wait, but i have to go to bed now.
Last night i almost couldn't sleep, because i thought "tomorrow you will get it"...
I'm so excited!!!!
Am i crazy?
The bridge pickup will be a TB-5.
The stupid guys in the custom office did have my package one wekk layin' arrojnd, until i got their message!
It took 6 days and 32$ to deliver from USA to Germany - the custom office in my city took 7 days, to contact me!
Thats not what i understand under "express" :-(

That stuff happens all the time. It makes shipping pickups overseas a real drag sometimes. The customer often blames the seller for the delay and we have nothing to do with the delay! The item gets to Europe or wherever in a fast timely way and then it sits on a shelf in a Customs office for a week or two weeks or longer sometimes. Meanwhile the customer is making all kinds of demands and threats to the seller over this "lost" item. :smack: It can be a real energy sucker...I hate getting involved when that happens and spending all kinds of time on a sale that started with maybe a $20. profit then watching that profit get smaller and smaller with the time time spent pacifying a customer who's running out of patience. Glad your transaction ended well.

the PG neck is a tad brighter than most buckers and the clean tone is pretty airy, but the A2Pro has quite a bit of single coil vibe to it!
