tragictravisty yea, but with 2 screw coils. the original ones were very unique, each screw was actually made out of a magnet, but that magnet is no longer produced... at least not in the form of a screw.

harrison tragictravisty said: why do you assume they dont stand up to the originals tonally?because if they did there wouldnt be this quest for cunife or original wrhp on ebay for 400 dollars each. i really like the reissue pickups, they sound great to me
harrison i understand that they are rare, and that effects the prices. but i also know that the original and the reissues are built absolutely differently and thus will have a different sound.
harrison tragictravisty said: different and better are two very different wordsyeah i didnt mean to put the new ones down, just knew they wouldnt sound the same. poor choice of words on my part
