I am definitely a Seymour Duncan user for life. I first bought a '59 and a JB set back in 1986 for my 1972 Gibson SG Deluxe guitar. What an awesome set for this guitar. About a year ago I put the original '57's back in the SG and put the SD's in my Epiphone Dot. WOW! What a difference that made. The 335 dot sounds outstanding! Well I just bought a set of these '59's for my Les Paul on Sunday and they sound way better than the Burstbuckers that came with the guitar. The BB's sounded muddy with distortion and tinny when clean. Very brittle and sterile sounding. I went with the Vintage Blues set over the Hot Rodded set because I wanted the PAF sound for this guitar. They are very articulate and as they say have that buttery chunky sound. Great strong lows, nice mids and highs. Very balanced across the whole spectrum of sound. Clear weather clean or distorted. Absolutely beautiful pickups. Seymour Duncan pickups have always been my go to choice since that 1st set I purchased in 1986. I have had numerous guitars in the past and only named a few here that I have put SD's in. A few of my other guitars also got replaced with SD's. Try them and you will never go back. These definately sound good in my studio and can't wait to play them out next weekend. Great job again Seymour Duncan! Keep it up!
if you like the sound of gary more guitar,or the alman bros.you will love this pick up. I have used this pick up for years!!! it also sounds good with the tone turned all the way down!!!!! you can't beat it!!
Let me just start by saying Seymour Duncan is the best company I've ever dealt with. These pickups are very warm with a lot of growl yet still articulate. They sounded very good in my mahogany bodied maple top guitar. They just didn't have the sound I was personally looking for. That doesn't mean they didn't sound good because they did. Seymour Duncan customer sevice is second to NONE! I called them and descibed the sound I was looking for and they recommended the Hot Rodded set, so I sent these back and exactly one week from the time I sent them in I had my new set. I only had to pay for the shipping to them. I do love the Seymour Duncan sound and these guys have won a customer for life. If your a Dimarzio or EMG fan give Seymour Duncan a try I think you'll be impressed.
