    Default Most verstile

    What would be the most versitle fat/articulate pickup for Rock,Punk, Blues. that would clean up nicely when the volume is rolled back, and using a Marshall Dsl 100 with 4x12 vintage 30's?
    In a Mahongy body/neck/ Ebony/Rosewood fingerboard.

    suggestions

    Cool Re: Most verstile

    I'll put my vote in the the Seymour Duncan JB humbucker, I know others will choose different pick-ups.
    But the JB is my favorite humbucker to use for anything, jazz, blues, rock, metal... So check it out.

    I have a Custom and i got it specifacally because it can do alot of different things well. Ive never used a JB but from ive read it would be a good choice too.

    I've used the JB in a bunch of different guitars. It is very versatile, and I love it.

    I'm about to install a new set of '59's in my Les Paul in hopes of nailing the traditional Blues Rock tone. I've done the high gain thing to death in my 25 years of playing, and I've found myself searching for a cleaner tone with more 'wood' coming through.

    Good luck with your search,
    Mike

    Read about the Genesis Mr.Browney on harmony central.

    I try the JB and all other pickups Even the Tom Holmes pickups.

    With a marshall you need to try Mr.Browney out. you can always
    get your money back, But I have a feeling you won't return it
    once you try it.

    It's that good.

    This is a very , very nice sweet sounding pickup that clear and
    has a very delious tone exspecially when overdriven.

    It's really hard to go wrong with the JB or Distortion.
    Buy the book in my avatar. It's pretty cool.
