Pickups for an Epi LP

[Dom L]

Finally got one of these( Epi Les Pauls). I'm gonna use it for only a few songs( Statesboro Blues, All Right Now,Can't Get Enough, Beautifully Broken) , since the Strats do just about everything else.
I want that Paul Kossof, Mick Ralphs tone, but I also need a Warren Haynes and Daune Allman thing going. It may be too much to ask?
Gonna use it through the setup below, Mesa Boogie--tubescreamer
Anyway any opinions would be appreciated

For the tone you're describing: a set of Pearly Gates, Antiquitys or Seth Lovers.

Hard decision to make.
I was thinking 59n with an APHb (to tame the highs) or a set of APH's or even a Gibson Classic '57 and '57+
I really want something with AlNiCo 2 mags, but the Pearlys may have too much hi end

BTW Lew you have a typo on E-Bay

You're bidding on one, brand new Seymour Duncan ALNICO II PRO humbucking pickup in the factory sealed jewel box. Black or zebra coils. Neck or bridge model. 4 conductor cable. Alnico 5 magnet. Traditional polepiece spacing for Gibson Les Paul guitars. Full Duncan warranty and 21 day exchange policy included.


It should be Alnico 2 magnet

Sorry but I just proofread alot of tech stuff at work and sometimes I bring it home.

I've got a '59 bridge in my Epi LP and it sounds VERY vintage (Zeppelin, Bad Co, old Aerosmith etc...) Lotsa bass also.
