Howdy guys! I recently upgraded to a Bill Lawrence humbucker in my 2nd year Ibanez RG570 Custom so i have this pickup to spare. This is a medium/high output pickup that sounds very balanced and has a lot of gain, it sounded very nice in my Ibanez but when i installed it in my epiphone strat style the sound was unbelievable, a lot of gain and singing tone. Its a very good pickup for any guitar and well worth a find, getting it unless someone uninstalls them from their Ibanez's is very rare Anyone with a strat, strat style or other guitar this is your chance to get one. I am willing to part with it for Rs1500. I live in Bangalore but can ship it anywhere in India. Please contact me at rayz_k2@yahoo.com or call me at 9886376129. Thanks, Rayz
I was just thinking maybe i can settle for a little less, so i decided on going with 1200 for the pickup...
How does this do for metal? I like playing Slayer and Metallica...basically anything fast/speed/thrash. I'd be interested if it can do things like that. Whether you would be willing to ship to Canada is another issue though.
Hey there dmf, i have never played Slayer and the kind and my only tryst with metal's been with a lot of Megadeth a bit of Testament and Pantera and it did extremely well with those. While it sounds good in an Ibanez i have tried it in a strat style guitar and it really rocked then. I can ship to Canada through EMS Speed Post but i dont know how much (can find out tomorrow) and whether you will be willing to pay, let me find out tomorrow and let you know how much...
EDIT: Actually forget it. I spoke to my buddy about this and he said he owns that pickup and that it's very trebly and muddy. Not worth the money at all. I withdraw my offer. Sorry.
Its ok, IMO its a very good pickup, the muddiness you talk about is actually the gain on the pickup and its actually very balanced...
Hi, I checked this pick up. It's more a heavy metal pickup. For heavy metal and maybe something beyond it rocks. I was looking at a more Blues Pickup, so it didn't suit my need. I play things like Cream, SRV and it sounded a bit heavy for my requirements. This guy showed me some cool Megadeth and Pantera riffs and solos. This pickup rocks and cool price tag too. I wish he sold Seymour Duncan Seth Lover model, so that I could have picked it up at this price
