I had heard that the Holdsworth was a double screw version of a JB.
Before Steve Stevens got RY, I think he was a user of JB's I think, so I would guess the sound would be similar

yeah, essentially it is. The JB is certainly the closest match to the holdsworth anyway. But lets not worry about those lowly Seymour Duncan's.

I will be speaking to tim about the holdsworth prototype some time after xmas. I might even get a couple of them, i was trying to decide between a rebel yell and a cold sweat for my single pickup explorer anyway.

My growing shopping list is something like this:

Calibrated set Nailbombs - camo covered
Holdsworth prototype bridge pickup
Somethign for my explorer project (cold sweat/another Holdsworth/???)

not to mention the nice one off set of nickel covered dog ear P-90's i have here at the moment.

Looking forward to the first few months of nect year when i can get all these guitars finished and try out the pickups!!!

can i play right handed??? thats questionable

. Hopefully i can pick out a few notes and strum a few chords well enough to see if its a pickup i want on more of my guitars.

not doing too bad on guitar hero III so i guess i really can play guitar :P

I have a double screw Nailbomb. It adds more bass to the sound. I used to have a couple of SD Holdsworth's and got this to replace them. It has double white (really white - not cream) coils. Currently it is not in a guitar, but I was thinking of putting it into my Warmoth Mockingbird clone as it is quite a bright guitar.
