Okay I did a search specific to this site with these terms

coil tap Mules alnico HERE

I was not able to glean any information available on how the ALNICO II Mules (NOT THE ALNICO IV) sound when tapped or split.

Anyone try this?

I am trying to decide between the 4 conductor or 2 conductor ALNICO II'S

I'd order 4-conductor and try the split mode. If you don't like it, just wire it in a regular way. You'll only have to desolder the coil tap (I think green and white wire soldered together) from the switch and tape it out of the way.

I cant tell you on the tapped aspect of the pickups, but I have the mules alnico II's in a PRS singlecut and I couldnt have asked for a better pickup, i would go for it...

You can also buy them with Alnico III. It all depends on your guitar and the sound you're after.
