What is the Duncan humbucker that is most similar to a Lollar Imperial?

[davidrf]

Hi there,
I often watch the youtube channel of a guy who has a Lollar Imperial on the bridge position of a Stratocaster. I asked a few people what Seymour Duncan pickup is the most similar to a Lollar Imperial, and some said Pearly Gates, some said Pearly Gates is actually quite different and a Alnico II Pro is closer. Now I'm more confused than before. Can anyone chime in? Thanks

To my knowledge, the Imperials are degaussed A5 for the bridge with an asymetrical wind. I don't think there's anything quite like that in the Duncan catalog. You might have to make your own hybrid and swap your own magnet in if you want that.

Why don't you just buy an Imperial ?

I'd an Ant Bridge humbucker with UO A5.
BTW i love my Lollar Imperial Bridge to death. Anyone has a raw nickle neck for sale?
