Members mooseeka Posted May 29, 2007 Members Share Posted May 29, 2007 Folks, you're in for a treat here to get the short cut for the BROWN SOUND, this was after many years of research and lots of funds spent!There are many Pickups on the market that can sound close to that old brown sound! but thats after alot of tweaking, EQ, amps setups....and may still not get U there close enough, cause simply they just dont have that voicing and string response. The list below sound brown right out the box in all guitars, clearly the right amp is important too but this WILL get U pretty damn close as is! I've tried pretty much every humbucker Dimarzio, Duncan RioGrande makes,. The list is from Most to Least in order: 1-Seymour duncan Parallel axis ORIGINAL2-Seymour Duncan EVH3-Dimarzio Air Norton when installed in bridge of a bright guitar4-Dimarzio Double whammy5-Seymour Duncan Custom Custom Obviously they sound some how different, but they all have that unique crunch and high mid peak voicing that you'll recognize right away Enjoy and trust me look no further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jokoker Posted May 29, 2007 Members Share Posted May 29, 2007 Interesting post. Be Warned: You may get flamed by men in short sleeved button shirts that are covered with flaming guitars and/or dragons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members docjeffrey Posted May 29, 2007 Members Share Posted May 29, 2007 I can get a convincing brown sound from a Jazzmaster or Tele for that matter. It's not that difficult. I do own a pretty cool Marshall handwired amp--which helps--but you don't need anything special in terms of pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
