does it have to be 4 conductor? i think you'd like the Magna'tron.

$130 is only $30 shy of what I spent on the guitar...

Irrelevant. That pickup is awesome. It's like a secret weapon. It looks like a hand grenade, but melts off your entire face, blows your bones into pieces of carbon so compressed, it's like a million diamonds only ants can appreciate, and then travels into the centre of the earth and takes a huge atomic shit into the core.

It'll be like that.

In other words, dew it.

Get humbucker sized P-90. YOU NEED IT.

What part of "coil-splitable humbucker not made by Seymour Duncan" don't you people understand?

Dude you should get a JB. They are awesome.

I have one, and no, they aren't.

Dude, just ask Icey, your problem with Seymour Duncan's isn't that they suck, it's that you just need ANGRY DUNCANS!

also, do graphite nut, gotoh tunners, and have luthier custom maded mapple top.

I respect the Iceman's opinion, he's a master of tone.

I, too, am looking for a splittable humbucker for my Squier '51. Although mine's must sound good and strat-ish when split. Preferably I want a good, slightly hot Texas sound when it's split. It helps if it sounds good when it isn't too.

Any ideas?

BY THE WAY:
I'm still in the process of getting those funds transferred shad, it should be sorted tomorrow. thanks for your patience.

It's the GFS self-trip that directed me to the Loudmouth. 14.5k in the bridge divided by two will likely equal something interesting, I'm sure. I've yet to put it anything as of yet, but the dang description is trying to excite me out of flaccid guitarism:

Deep down inside, GFS actually wrote: Like, OMG! Loud, fat and big, the loudmouf delivers the kind o' power you'd expect from a modern "distortion" pickup. What you really don't expect is the loudmouth's totally incredible amount of string response and presencece. These unite forces against a common enemy to give you the power to rawk WITHOUT blood sacrificing high end string snappy spa%^*@Xs.

Teh 4 wire pickups for coil tapping- the single coil mode on these is truly extraordinariez. Round, warm and very Strat-ey, not at all like the weakass coil tap mode youse used to the playimg.

ahahhahaha ng you crazy as hell

I'm putting a GFS Bigmouth in the bridge of my Univox Badazz. I'm excited to hear it.

I installed one in a friend's Tele for him (new bridge plate, routed cavity, blah blah). It had the sound -- and haven't really liked Lace Sensors up to that point. I think it was Gold-Gold, but I don't remember.

Based solely on my friend's experience, though, guitars with Lace Duallys have a 100% chance of getting stolen out of your car a couple months later.

Blatantly ignoring most of what you just said: Gibson 57 Classic. Chrome, check. Non-splittable, check. But if I built a replica of my 78 FrankenMusicmaster, that's what I'd use in the bridge position.

do not get mini humbuckers. i will personally slap you

get some filtertrons

Let's check the score:

Full bodied:
See More Dunko JB
Hum-sized P90
GFS Bigmouf
Gibb fifty-sevens

Mini humm'd
Magnatrons
Run o' da mill Filtertrons
Get slapped/spanked by Ian McKellan prolly for NYs


It appears that Shad & Bacchus have a world of options.

A WORLD OF OPTIONS PEOPLE KEEP LISTING THAT DO NO GOOD FOR ME. AUUUGH

what sort of sound are you after? i might as well just list the entire line of Dimarzio 'buckers or something if all you want is a full size 4 conductor 'bucker.

I'm thinking I'll just go for the DiMarzio EJ Custom filtertron-alike.
