Dual resonance, more noise?
« on: October 18, 2017, 04:50:59 AM »
Just curious if dual resonance PU's are more noisey than traditional designs or not.

In case to be specific, I play close to the computer in my home studio setup (with vai-ish high-gain). Its not too bad, but I have 3-4 PU's in mind and thought less noise would be a factor for me in choosing one.

Depends on the coil offset.

Also depends on the pickup design itself. I have the Steve's Special which as a big coil offset and its not noisy.
