Now, it was in a guitar with a bolt on neck and a Fender scale).Ī Wilde / Bill Lawrence L500 "C" might be interesting too : “C” stands for “Clean” and these humbuckers are meant to have an inductance of 2H, just like an underwound Strat PU.
Reasons: once in parallel, such a plastic housed PU has the same inductance than a Strat pickup, it has the same absence of softening eddy currents/ Foucault currents since it has no metallic cover nor metallic baseplate, and in the case of the Duncan SH13, it has even the required high Q factor for a pointy single coilish resonant peak (I wish I had kept some samples of the SH13 in parallel since it was surprisingly the most SC sounding standard sized HB I've ever mounted. but IME, it's among the most Fender single coil sounding humbucking solutions under a normal HB frame. It's a totally iconoclast suggestion and it won't change a Les Paul in a Strat (too many differences for that). a Duncan SH13 (or Bill Lawrence L500XL) wired in PARALLEL in neck AND bridge positions (!!!). to ME, the most Fender SC sounding humbucker might be. clones with similar typical specs (DCR around 8k and inductance around 4H), Seth Lover’s are a bit weak theoretically to be used split or in parallel… but YMMV. Not only the output level becomes weaker but the resonant frequency of each pickup becomes HIGHER pitched and leans towards a single coil resonance (albeit with a rounder spectrum, like a single coil whose tone pot would be lowered). Reason: 50s wiring makes the tone control behave in a reverse way when the volume is lowered. clones but would give you a kinda single coilish output level / transparency with "50s wiring" (not modern wiring) and with both volume / tone controls lowered around 7/10. Seth Lover's are not the most single coil sounding P.A.F.
