I think I've just heard the best strat replacement pickup ever this morning.

STill thinking about these pickups. Not sure how to actually send a message on the "new" MySpace.

Click on the little interlocking rings on the upper right hand side of the screen. One of the options is 'send message'.

I did that but all I get is this:

Nice sounding pickups!

 

[Kerouac]

Those '59s sounded especially awesome.

 

[Mark Wein]

They do but I think the '69 ones are the pickups for me. I just don't see them anywhere. My other thing is that they seem to be only available in sets of 3 and I don't need a bridge pickup.

Click connect? Not sure, but seems likely?

Man, myspace, it's, um, gone?

They could write the book on how to lose a userbase... no wait, Harmony Central could write the book... no wait...

I already clicked connect. Doesn't do anything other than change to "disconnect".

Mine says "Connect/Share/Send message" - myspace, yay.

MySpace has gone completely stupid. I checked on it the other day for laughs. Laughed harder than expected. LOL

I still think this is one of the best Strat sets I've ever heard:

I wish BKP had some more extensive clips to compare against these, but damn, that's how I want a Strat to sound.

That does sound really nice: https://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/ma...ntage/mothers_milks/mothers_milk-60s_rock.mp3

I think that I'm over the relative "politeness" of the Suhr v60lps.

The more I'm listening to the soundclips they seem to have more in common with the SLiders '59 set. As much as can be told from an mp3 of course.

I know with all the Strat variations over the years it can be hard to pin down the exact time frame, those BKPs seem liked they'd be versatile while still remaining true to a classic "Strat" sound.

WTS, I went with a modern BKP pup Tele in my McFeely, rather than a vintage one.

The mother's milk are badass. Love them.

 

[Mark Wein]

It all depends on application I guess. I have my Suhr which appeals to my vintage aesthetic while still sounding kind of modern, my Tokai and green strat both have the vintage thing down pretty good. I'd like to get the Hendrixy "big strat" sound from the neck and middle of my McFeely though.

 

[Modern Saint]

Very nice sounding

Well the guy that makes them sells them on Ebay, and they are $325 a set with $25 shipping.

I know I'm a bit of a Curtis Novak shill but I don't think his strat pickups sound that far off.

Also on his myspace page when I mouse over the two connected rings I have the option to send him a message. Weird, maybe the browser you are using?

Apparently this is his email addy, sliderspickups@bigpond.com
