So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Miscellaneous stock humbuckers from Epiphone, Dean, and BC Rich, a few stock strat single coils from Fender, and possibly a stock Fender tele pickup or two. As far as Seymour Duncan pickups, I have a Phat Cat and a pair of P-Rails sitting around waiting for me to get the soldering iron out, as well as a pickguard already loaded with a Crazy8 and Stratbro90 waiting for me to finish a refinishing project. I think I have an old style CR-1n around here somewhere, too.

Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Let's see...

Two standard Ibanez humbuckers
One DiMarzio X2N
One DiMarzio PAF Pro
One DiMarzio Super Distortion
One Duncan Dimebucker
One Duncan Invader
One Duncan Hot Rails squished humbucker
Two Lace Alumitone humbuckers (they STINK, btw)

And a bunch of springs, screws, and pickup rings.

This echoes my experience with them. They sound fantastic clean but the slightest bit of dirt and they just don't punch at all.

Not the first time I've heard this. I've heard the lace sensor singles and dually's are really cool though. Just never got around to trying them.
 
Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

G&B: DBZB / DBZ5 pickups (Gold Covered)
Seymour Duncan: Pearly Gates - neck (zebra)
 
Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Well let's see, for humbucker's, I got a set of double cream Dimarzio 36th PAF's, a double black set of Van Zandt TruBuckers, a Zebra set of Stew Mac Golden Age and a Zebra set of Tonerider A4's. For tele pups, I got a few bridge and neck pups from the vintage vibe series and a set of GFS Lil Punchers (or killers...can't remember, but the humbucking double blade ones). For strat, I have a nos set of Chubtone 67's.
 
Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Ok, finally got around to checking the box, which looks like this:

Parts-Station+25+Drawer+Plastic+Parts+Cabinet.jpg

but has 30 drawers

and here's what's in it:

A Gibson uncovered long-leg something-or-other. Dunno if it's a 500T or modern Dirty Fingers. Came with (?) a sticker that says 15K.
An early-mid 80s Gibson Dirty Fingers (pulled this one from a rear-loaded '84 Gibson Explorer myself) 15.9K, pat no stamped on baseplate, double-screw
Sustainiac single-sized driver
Duncan Custom7 that came in my Jackson CS Warrior-7
White Duncan DCJ with RCA4 and long legs
A logoed Duncan with what looks like a home-made DD sticker on the bottom. Replaced the original? Definitely a different typeface than the DCJ, with a short-leg baseplate.
Duncan Custom 5
Duncan 7-string 59n
Duncan 59b
Duncan JB
Gibson 496R
Gibson 498T
Duncan Jazz neck
Duncan Lil59
Duncan CS JazzJr
Duncan CS DistJr
Duncan CS CustomJr
Duncan Classic Stack
TripleShot
TripleShot
Roll of 4-conductor cable
Barcus-Berry piezo discs
Duncan Designed HB103N
Pickup rings
Vintage Duncan Holdsworth
59/Custom with A2
Pair of Fender singles but not sure which models - skinny mags on bottom on either side of the slugs?
Ceramic magnets I stripped from a couple of imports
 
Re: So what's hanging out in your pickup drawer?

Clearly you have crappy tone...everybody knows that the Magnet Swap Mafia is right and mag swaps and A8 mags are THE SINGLE BIGGEST key to killer tone.

Exactly. How could you possibly know what good tone is unless you're cramming an A8 into every model pickup made? For that matter, you should just go with the C8 and accept that any other pickup or modification will make you sound like you're playing through an AM radio. otherwise, your drawer full of pickups will be found sleeping with the fishes.
