im bumping this purely for the sake of any new info on those newly teased Jazzmaster pickups ?
As well as suggestions for something in my humbucker equipped, 6 string, 30inch baritone.
Are the P90 style in normal humbucker housings any good? Kind of want something twangy and disgusting in this...
The Nazgul is disgusting.
Only pickup Iver tried worst than it for modern Metal of my tastes is the Lace Deathbar
Honky, nasally shit. Has some weird fizz over it on an annoying frequency that's tough to dial out aswell.
The 81 is king of this comparison
Closest I got to a crazy setup like this was the old analog Periphery setup.
I.e
Keeley 4 knob compressor > ISP decimator > Maxon OD808 > Boss noise gate > Amp
Worked flawlessly and sounded so good.
I didn't have a noise issue.
You probably just have way too much going on.
Emgs and the 24v mod is completely necessary. Especially if youre the type that will moan about the compression.
Opens them right up and removes alot of that comp.
If you hate 81s for this, try the 24v mod before writing them off.
In my opinion, this is the stupidest thing I've ever read on SSO
If you think something like an EMG 81 lacks pick attack and aggression then I don't know what to say.
guarantee the marketing ends up like Iridiums pre launch marketing, where despite in that case, its a HIGH GAIN modern amp, all the advertising just showed dad rock blues players on it.
With the iridium it wasnt until after it dropped, that metal dudes were then showcasing it which I bet hurt...
Thats sick!!!
Wheres the info on these? Im not finding it on their website!
Also, makes getting guitars like the Squier Baritone (when you can find one) a serious option as a mod platform too now given these pickups exist!
These active or passive etc!?
