Hi dude !
The wood has a minor importance in an electric guitar.
The signal chain is long and complex because you have your jack your pedals your amp and you speaker.
There's more chance that you have a similar sound on 30 mahogany trees who grow on a same land that 2 mahogany who grow on seperate land (1 in Africa and 1 in Asia for example).
Why ? because land is different in each places on the Earth (acidity, temperature) and the climate too !
You cannot say "mahogany sounds low the maple sounds very clean"... because the same species are differents.
If you want to hear a difference, you take a guitar, you play and you change only the body (for example) and you keep the SAME neck PU and electronic and amp settings... Can your ear hears the difference ??

If you like these pickups, put them on your other guitar, there will be no diffrence.

Hope, that will help you

While I agree with wood sounding different from place to place, I don't see how it applies here. He's trying to find pickups to match his piece of wood, not a piece of wood to match his pickups. There would be a huge difference going from a mahogany guitar to one made of plywood. The science behind electric guitars shows that the wood wouldn't make a big difference, but experience and my ears have shown me it does.

I recommend the Blackhawks for a similar sound to the MM but the BH will cut through the mahogany more and brighten it up a bit. They're perfect for my all mahogany C-1.
