The Pickup Place / Re: HFH vs Super 2 vs 36th
« on: November 02, 2014, 06:27:31 PM »

I was just going to recommend the PAF Master neck pickup. It's got the qualities of the PAF36th but with more bite.

That comparison video does make it sound more applicable than the 36th. Didn't you get a set for testing purposes?  If so, how do the lows hold up, especially under high gain on a short scale?

Any thoughts about the EJ Custom Neck or Air Classic Neck?

I checked out that video demo of the 36th and the PAF Master and I'm liking now the Master compares. Too many options. lol!  I do have a Super 2 on order that will be here next week, but that is more for a super strat shred stick.

Thanks for suggesting the PP. I'm gonna look into it further.

The Pickup Place / HFH vs Super 2 vs 36th

Looking for a neck humbucker for a darky and boomy mahogany Epiphone Les Paul, tuned to standard E. 10-46 strings. I will be wiring it to a switch for split or parallel for clean tones, so I'm focusing on finding something that will handle high gain dirty tones and not get mushy or flub out, specially I'm the lows (think of G and A barre chords, for example).

I do have experience with the HFH, but sort of find it a little rigid and stiff sounding. I'm intrigued by the output of the Super 2, but am concerned about it sounding too saturated. I'm also intrigued by the open vibe of the 36th neck, but am concerned about how it will perform with high gain.



#1. Any opinions on those options?

And

#2. Am I overlooking another option?


Thanks

I like to go with single space hums in middle and neck and then wire them to switches for tones I'm wanting, be it series/parallel or series/split or series/split/parallel.

both feel a wee bit tighter and focused.  a bit more drive.

there really s no production dimarzios that are dead on to these, closest is AT-1 in the bridge and a air norton or liquifire in the neck.

That's interesting, as that's what I put in my EBMM Axis to replace them with. AT-1 bridge and LF neck.

Just sold a set a week ago. Had them advertised on here. Probably best to look on eBay or a place like that.

from reading the post in the other thread, it sounds like it might be worth it for you to track down a set and do some reverse engineering on the actual item(s)
