ARCANE pu's? owners opinions needed

[charvelstrat81]

I really like the tone of this pu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g17c2ZYWiqA has a richness and harmonic aliveness i dont hear in many others like duuncan and dimarzio.
from what info i could find it is a alnico 5 wind and is wound to 9K so it is a overwound PAF type.
what i wanted to ask is, to those that have rob turners pu's does he use plain enamel wire like on the old PAF's and all high quality parts to make his humbuckers?
I am a huge jim wagner(WCR) fan but his pu's sell for over $200 a set and the arcanes are half that amount
One other thing is arcane also makes a Brownbucker that is 9K alnico 5 as well so i wonder what the tone difference is between the two?

I am a HUGE Arcane pickup fan and user. Both of my LP's are loaded with Arcane PU's.

I have the Tripleclones in the my 57RI which sound like this:

And I have a custom Alnico 8 bridge (13K) and Alnico 5 Neck (9K) in my 13' Traditional which sounds like this:

His pickups are really awesome. I can't recommend them enough. Nice guy too.

excellent! thanks for the vid and link, how does his pu's feel under the fingers?
I like a pu that is extremely responsive? I dont like sag but more of a percussive attack.
I am assuming these pu's are not mass produced(over 10,000 a day type of thing like duncan or dimarzio) and have a lot more care/control go into them?
Like i said i love WCR pu's but they are too pricey IMHO.

Join the club. I've had a Brownbucker on order since Mar 5th. No response to emails from me or the dealer, and no updates of any kind since 10+ weeks ago when he said it would be "about two more weeks".

I'm more than a little pissed...
