Title: FRETKING ESPRIT 5 PUPS NEED REPLACING
Post by: matc on July 01, 2007, 07:44:44 PM

Hi,
I have an eggle made fretking esprit 5 (Korina neck and body)
It curently has the origional pups - gotoh made i believe for trev Wilkinson at the time. They only seem to have a dc resis of 4.2ohm and are wired so as to be split for the inner and out coil voicings.
Anyone recommend a BK humbucker that coil taps well.  :?: I have used Mules in aa gibson Les Paul for 3 years & they've been excellent. :guitar4:

I think the VHII will be your best bet mate - i've heard they sound very genuinely single-coilish
