lemmywinks Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I also like the EMG Select i have, very good sounding pickup. Having said that i also like Wilkinson pups and they're silly cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangepeelneil Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 [size=2]Hello, I quite like Schaller pickups, they are not so popular (yet), so they tend to turn up cheap on Ebay ttc so it's worth keeping a look out for them. The PB6 has 6mm (1/4") pole pieces like the SD QuarterPounder, I picked up a set for £15 used. They may be expensive new.

I loves 'em - great value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vibrating G String Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 [quote name='4StringFortress' post='1276815' date='Jun 21 2011, 03:06 AM']I hear good things about Wilkinson but I want to get the opinions of you all first.[/quote] I got a 5 string version off eBay for $17, came from Hong Kong I think. Sounds great, nails the vintage tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
