that being said, people have complained that SC sized humbuckers don't sound like either single coils or humbuckers. no, they sound like SC sized humbuckers, which is a sound in itself surely?
Totally agree. Guitar players are so locked in to the idea of the '59 Les Paul/'57 Strat as the yardsticks of tone. You get these big pickup roundup reviews where they compare 10 different humbuckers to see which sounds most like a vintage PAF. Bollocks to that, do they sound
good?
Maybe young players today haven't had that whole "everything made after 1965 is shitee" mentality drummed into them. I hope so.
