hi,
just putting a partscaster together with a maple neck,
I already have a set of 57/62s in a 57 body I am parting out on ebay which are really good pickups but was gassing for lindy fralin vintage hots for my new build.
I play a kind of bluesy country rock style into a deluxe reverb.
Should I give the fenders a go or the fralins?
I think sometimes i'm just a sucker for boutique stuff,
words like scatterwound and handwound just make me feel like the extra dough is worth it, and I always get the impression that rightly or wrongly, fender is all about the mighty dollar, and cutting corners!
I want pickups that are vintage sounding and probably already have the right ones in th 57/62s,
but then again???
I should really be playing instead of typing...
and I don't really have the money to go chasing an ultimate tone dream!
cheers,
mal
