Alighty, which pickup to get.
Ok, what pickup should I get for my guitar project? Black, open faced humbucker, medium-high output, to mount in a Strat pickguard. I've been looking at a few, but not sure where to go (whether I should go with one of the "big names" and pay the extra, a la Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio, or if a lesser good quality name would be better, a la GFS or whatever).
I've been looking at the JB and Custom Custom from Duncan, the DiMarzio Fred, and a couple GFS PAF styles (Fat PAF and Overwound PAF).
Re: Alighty, which pickup to get.
I would say spend a little extra and don't cut corners on something like a pickup. You can get a SD JB for a decent amount. Pretty versatile pup.
I've heard good things about the GFS tele pickups, but no idea how they are as a whole.
