Ok boys and girls. What is your favorite pickup, from above mention pickup company? If you have a set, which is favorite pairing?

Bump, this is an interesting one.

I've only tried the Filmore set in an Orville ES335. They were great which doesn't really say much. They didn't get muddy when turning down volumes. Great rock sound, kind of wish I kept the pickups for something else. Sorry I can't offer much valuable info, if any lol, but I didn't like that guitar one bit so I sold it pretty quick. The best ES335 I've owned was an ES333.

The only one I ever liked was a Darkburst neck. I never found a bridge model that worked for me. That DB neck was a tone monster though.

I had a Strat with SR singles in it, and those were very nice. I sold the Strat in 2008.

Crossroads, although I only have a bridge version for now. Anyone for a neck for trade/sale?

I had a Filmore which I didn't like and a set of Darkbursts that weren't sparkly enough for my taste, although very good in their own sense. They went off when I sold my SG.

I had the Fillmores, which were nice. I sold the pickups to a very handsome forum member and sold the guitar to someone else.

I just picked up used neck and middle SR's for my Tokai Tele. It was an 'Esquire' but since I want to sell my Strat eventually and the Tele was already routed, I figured I would make it a three pickup Tele.

The SRs are fantastic. I am still tweaking them but they really rock my world.

Iron Man is a monster in my Les Paul. Cleans up amazing for a 22k pickup. As already mentioned, Crossroads neck is amazing as well.

I LOVED the set of Fillmore's in my old R7, amazing tone.

Jim is my friend and he's the mad scientist, LOL. Every chance I get, I love to boast that I am the one who dreamed up the Iron Man, and even named it such. I had an idea for a pickup with those specific specs and asked Jim to do his thing and call it the Iron Man. He did, and it turned out to be a good seller that he now carries in his regular line.

That said, I currently have a Crossroads neck and overwound Darkburst bridge in my Les Paul Classic. The CR is about the more beautiful, woody, pickup with hollow overtones I've ever heard. Very warm, but bright.

I'm still feeling my way around the overwound DB right now, currently it has awesome overall tone, but is a tad dark and trebly in my LP for what I play. I think the ticket is to replace the A5 mag with an A2 to fill it out a bit and give it a little more body. Its wound to 9.2k so the A2 should be magic.

In the past I've used the old Goodwood, the more recent Godwood, and Fillmores. All are excellent pickups that are different flavors off the WCR ice cream bar.

lol that's really cool. I guess you're the man to ask, when I first saw one of those I thought Ironman, ok after Sabbath right?

[TattooedCarrot]

Yep, I originally intended it to go into an SG.
