Frequently asked questions
Are these pickups different in tone or output?
No. Both have 8.20k DC resistance, rough cast Alnico 5 magnets, 42-gauge plain-enamel wire, and hand-built Santa Barbara construction. The only difference is the coil finish—solid white versus alternating black-and-nickel stripes.
Which one should I choose for rock or blues?
Either one. Both are marketed for rock, blues, and lead work and deliver the same articulate, naturally compressed, woody character with moderate output suited to neck position play.
Do either of these work well with coil-splitting?
Yes. Both include four-conductor cables that support coil-splitting and series/parallel wiring for tonal flexibility.
Is the visual difference worth considering?
Only if aesthetics matter to you. The White suits modern or light-finished guitars; the Zebra complements vintage or darker instruments. Sound and performance are identical.
