Picking A Guitar Pickup
High-output pickups are distorted and mostly unpleasant in the tonal
spectrum. They generate distorted tones exactly as designed. The usage
for these distortion producing pickups are limited at best. Low to
mid-output pickups are more versatile and much quieter. They represent
better and more clear, clean guitar output signal choices. They’re
perfect for clean sounds, however you have the option of dirtying up
your sound by changing your amp settings or plugging into distortion
pedals. In the myriad of choices for amps you’ll find one that can
easily distort at will. Most amps have enough gain to make any pickup
generate heavy distortion levels. Picking a pickup just became easier.
Follow The Crowd ?
I know lots of people who only wear “name brand” clothing. So do you?
What if there was something else that fit better, looked and felt
better? Would they wear it? From my experience- No. Well, the same goes
for guitar pickups. If you’re just a name brand Lemmings kind of player
there’s no changing you. However, if you’re intelligent, independent,
not easily lead by the crowd and find your own path preferable, then
you’ll benefit from a great set of pickups that just sound good. Most of
all, they have a good solid signal for you to process.
