Frequently asked questions
Are these pickups electrically identical?
Yes. Both feature 7.92 kOhm DC resistance, Alnico 8 magnets, 4-conductor shielded cables, and hand-assembly in Santa Barbara. The only difference is the coil-cover color.
Which one is better for metal and high-gain?
Both perform identically in metal and high-gain applications, delivering articulate note separation and controlled response across extended tunings. Your choice should be visual preference only.
Will the cosmetic difference affect tone at all?
No. Coil-cover color is cosmetic and does not impact magnetic field, output, or tonal character. Tone is determined by magnet type, resistance, and internal winding—all identical here.
Which suits professional studio and live use better?
Both are equally suited for professional applications. Choose based on whether your guitar's aesthetic calls for white or striped coils.
