I am doing a write up on how to improve the standard PG strat pickups at the moment.

The comparison video is particularly good. Well done to you friend for wearing a different shirt in each demo ;-), makes switching back and forth between the two sounds really easy. I can really hear the stock pickups sound a quite "tinny" compared to the Bensons, which have a much fuller, richer tone.
Thanks so much Gav, this will be a really helpful demo for customers who want to hear how the stock pickups sounds and what the Benson upgrade will sound like.

Yeah, I confer with the Mods to see where this thread should go, perhaps in the Video Demos forum and we re-title it to include pickup demos.

:D

Wot Adam sed.

I agree with the idea of putting these vids in the demo section.

Thanks heaps Gav, great stuff :)

Wow. That the Benson's definitely have a much fuller mid range to the sound but still have treble for note definition.
