Humbucker with sinclecoil qualities for dynamic playing
julius__ 20.04.2020
I bought this pickup for my old Tom Delonge Squier Strat that came with an SD Invader in bridge postion (and only that). In the last 16 years the music I play changed profoundly and the high gain pickup didn't do it anymore, instead I needed something that support a more dynamic playing, something with more brilliance and where you can always hear the single strings. So the idea was basically to create a Strat Junior, similar to what you get in SG or LP format.
Since I don't own a guitar with a P90, I can't tell how well the Bluesbucker imitates one but I can state that my guitar feels so much more alive with it. Warm sounding when played softly but cutting through when I put some effort in it. It never get muddy, even when the amp starts to distort you still can hear single notes.
I can recommend this pickup for everyone who feels their humbuckers are too flat or they need something more in the direction of a singlecoil.
The pickup comes with screws, springs and instructions, the wiring is excellent, as is the waxing.
Packaging arrived in a timely fashion, even in these challenging times, thanks to the Thomann team!

Great pickup exactly what I was looking for.

I was looking to replace a humbucker in my neck position as I don't like the sound. I wanted a single coil, p90 vibe. I would say this is a little hotter than those, but it has a great warm tone. Very happy
