Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
I feel a bit responible for this discusion, since I asked about my Epi
pups. I agree with Rick, the sound is your goal, and you must find the
way (equipment) to get it. The point is I have already

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
Clif,
I don't know how worthy of bandwidth my response will be, but I do
see this differently.

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
You're not a gear head and neither am I... Just someone who wants to
get the sound I am looking for...
It's funny... My wife and I agreed that I would only own two guitars
the rest of my life ...

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
I play a high end guitar, but the exact same one for more that 20
years, with no mods except for the pickup. I play low end amps (even
though I have a high end amp). You can buy a JX-40 for about

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
If it's equipment info you want, I'd highly recommend visiting The Gear Page (thegearpage.net) regularly. It's frequented by a lot of high end, boutique gear snobs, but, hey, I'm one of them.

I was refering to the remark,

gearheads, but I see this differently."

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
First of all, I want to apologize if I sounded argumentative. That
wasn't my intention.
To answer your question, I play a Gibson L5-S (paf reissue in neck

Re: Pick-up difference
According to what Tom Jones (TV Jones) told me... That the lower DC
resistance produces more clarity... Which is what I really love and I
think is what you want for jazz and for that matter blues

Re: Pick-up difference -- Reply to Rick
I think you should reread what Rick said. He said the exact opposite of what you claim he said. He said that *every* link in the chain, including (but not limited to) pickups, matters.

It stands for Patent Applied For.
It refers to a label that was placed on the earlier Gibson humbuckers.
These pickups are considered to be particularly good sounding. Gibson

Re: Pick-up difference
Ok, so what makes a good jazz pickup. How does D.C resistance have to
do with it? What difference does the height of the pickup make?
Basically what do I have to know to choose a good jazz pickup?
