Pickups As a newbi, I've been wondering what's the difference between all the humbucker pickups? |

I see that different guitars have different types of humbuckers. So I gather that the different types of guitars with a particular type of humbucker will create a unique sound. How does a Les Paul with it's humbucker pickups differ from say a Ibanez with humbuckers? |

| Kursad | seymour duncan pickups sample cd Once seymour duncan had sample cd's of their pickups (I dont know if they still do). They send you a set if you request (of course you pay the postage  ) Anyway, all of the humbucker samples on the cd were recorded on a lespaul, all of them sounded almost the same, both when clean and distorted, with the only difference being more or less distortion on overdriven samples. Other pickups (strat single coils and tele single coils) had audible differences, but not much.

| caffeine head | Re: Pickups I wish to suggest that if you have "loud and clean" output from your guitar pickups, whatever type they be, you can get all the sounds you need to play 99.99% of all the music you'll ever want to play. Had I realized this in my youth, I would have saved hundreds of dollars. |
