Members Schappy Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 Im looking for a good all around humbucker that is the most versatile to do all kinds of rock. Im thinking a Custom 5, Pearly Gates, or JB. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Burningleaves Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 Those would work. I would go for a JB or a DiMarzio Super Distortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Snake Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 I think the JB sounds great in my Strat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mikeSF Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 i went with JB's in two of my strats with great results. the split sound of a JB is very decent, at least as good as most stock singles, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Norcal_GIT_r Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 Checkout my line of handwound pickups. I'd suggest either the PUFs or BG Dark. Clips and info can be found at www.bg-pups.com/hb.html I also offer a forum member discount. If you have any questions feel free to contact me as I'm happy to help. Thanks, Bryan Gunsher BG Pups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LucianoFigallo Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 Consider a DiMarzio PAF, it comes in different versions according to the tone and output you are looking for your Strat, see here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members niceguy Posted October 17, 2008 Members Share Posted October 17, 2008 The JB in my Strat is OK---it's VERY hot, and it overpowers the other pickups. When playing at gig volumes, I can set my guitar volume to 9 at max, before getting feedback. I honestly wish I'd gotten a less hot pickup...

Members DownByLaw Posted October 18, 2008 Members Share Posted October 18, 2008 Suhr SSV+ or DSV. Great all arounders that split well. Mix well with singles, unlike a JB. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
