50s fender pickup

[David Schwab]

I liked the old EH stuff. I had a Guild Foxy Lady, which was the same as the early Big Muffs. I had the LPB-1 and Mole. The LPB-1 was noisy. Nothing sounds like a Big Muff though. The problem was they weren't very sturdy with the sheet metal boxes. MXR has those great aluminum boxes. But the Distortion + was a nasty sounding noisy thing with its LM-741 op amp.

I still have an original MXR AC Limiter and an EH Micro Synth. They both work fine. Wish I still had my script logo Phase 90.

But you are right, the bad old days are now the good old days. No one liked the mini humbuckers in the LP Deluxe, but now they are popular. Same deal with P-90s.

Go figure!

the henries and ohms on the middle and bridge- .05 difference in henries is really nothing and neither is .1 in DC resistance- I would say the middle and bridge are wound the same, now the front pickup- that DC resistance could still be the same turn count but the henries- there is either a problem with the coil or they use heavy build insulation on it and not the others or the turns per layer is a little different- if they are hand wound someone went back and forth a little faster on the neck pickup.
