entwistle strat pickups

[Dedman]

yeam I bought some black covers for a few bucks on Ebay

[brokin009]

oh ok ill keep a look out. are they all the same size? do i have to look for anything specific with the black covers

i wonder if these will look any good with a black scratch plate?

i kind of like the look of this. what you guys think?

Their website shows white covers only for Strat PUP's but you may be able to swap out for some aftermarket black covers if you are really keen for that look.

I've just put Tonerider Pure Vintage pickups in The Count, they have white covers and the stock black kit covers don't fit because of the spacing of the pole pieces so I'm off to stalk fleabay

[brokin009]

thats a bugger. might be harder to look for covers than i thought

[brokin009]

hey guys. what are you guys using in your strats? I was going to try the entwistle ones but now i think i might be able to squeeze a bit more and get a tonerider set. but there are a few types. i honestly have no idea the difference, i did read the details but unless you know what your doing its like mumbo jumbo to me. lol
anyone kind enough to clarify in dumb peoples terms.
im tossing up between the city limits set or the classic blues set.

Hey Brokin, I just installed the city limits in a strat and they sound great. The blues set will have a warmer blues tone not as high gain I'd say. Depends what style of music you like playing. The resistance figures were a bit less than quoted (amount of wire loops on the pickup) but they still sound good.
I think generally the Toneriders are really great pups for the money

[brokin009]

do you do any demos wokkaboy? would really like to hear it.

[wokkaboy]

Hey Brokin I'll see if I get time to record a demo this week. Here's how the pups look, the pole pieces are higher in the centre so the height to the strings are similar

[brokin009]

wow wokkaboy. very nice! i was thinking of doing something the same but i cant copy you now. lol
maple neck black scratch plate and white pickups, maybe a little lighter i was going to do with the body but i didnt want to do the same as the V, but yeah you have just showed me how nice it can look.

Hey Brokin, no worries, choose whatever colour combo you iike. I just recorded a rough video will upload in about 90 minutes. Will post the link here when it's ready
