Pro Shop or Players' Pick?

[Ningirsu]

It may seem like a filler at first glance but it had confused my mind.I have a Dimebucker in my Dean Razorback Explosion and when I checked it out on the Seymour Duncan Humbuckers' Page it indicates that it's a Players' Pick humbucker while the tone chart says it's a Pro Shop product.
I would like to know to which category it belongs to since my decision about replacing it with a Parallel Axis Trembucker Distortion depends partly on this classification..

the classification only has to do with if the pup is a typical best seller. if its like a 59 that is consistantly a good selling popular pup then it is designated a players pick.

Forgive the hijack .....

Are the EQs shown on the tone chart the results of measurements, or are they more subjective.

I agree. Once I stopped obsessing over the Tone Chart and what all those numbers and descriptions could potentially mean, I started actually trying more pickups, and finding better tone. Not to mention sleeping better at night. :werd:

I mean, they're relative, so you can tell something like if a pickup has a flat EQ response. But I don't find the EQ measurements to be helpful at all when trying to picture what a pickup swap will sound like, or how the mid response will change, stuff like that.
