murkat Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 If your looking for that old school DiMarzio / Hamer tone, I think our own Josh Gravelin nails it in spades, http://www.gravelinpickups.com/ That 70's sound, stock sound, refering to Gibson T-tops? Short A-5 magnets wrapped up in a 43ga wire, poly... I think. Just buy a set of used Gibson 490R's swap the mag for a short A5, bam, T-top.

tbonesullivan Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I saw those as well, and also the "whole lotta humbucker" model they are offering. Kinda good for those who have really wanted a "slightly" more rude '59 sound but didn't want to go all the way to a high output pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps « Pearly gates » set ... too much good choices. Gravelin is good so. Handmade, too much for me, Deluxe pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick G Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I have a set of those in my 1982 Special that was Refinished by Stike at Rowyco. Re-fretted, Crowned and Bound by Murkat. They are superb pups for that 70's mid-crunchy arena rock tone. Think of 38 Special growl/rasp meets UFO Schenker tones that are still open and retain clarity and you pretty much have it.
