He's a freakin' hurricane.
I have never met a blues rocker who hates as many blues rockers as you do Carl.fuck this moron.
I had the Klein Epic 56's, which I notice are no longer made. They were not like these Sayce pickups at all. TBH I'm getting the same excessive brightness vibe from these as I do most of the other Duncans I've tried. Maybe it's just the demo.I have a set of these. They sound very similar to the Klein Epic 59 set I have. Very similar.

Interesting, so it wasn't just me. I've tried the Fender fat 50's, 54, 60, TX Special, and had guitars equipped with one or two other Fender factory sets US and Korean plus that Klein set I mentioned. Other than the Specials they were all pretty similar in brightness and tone with the Fat 50's being kinda somewhere in between the specials and the rest. The fat 50's, the Klein 56's,and the ones in my mirror image jimi strat were my faves. These SD's just struck me as brighter than any of them right away.Yes - there is an incredible "sting" to these that my other single coils don't have. The other sets I have in my strats are the Fender Pure Vintage 65, Klein Epic 59, and Rocketfire True 60s. I have a Fender Pure Vintage 59 set I took out to put these in that I'll keep for whatever comes next.
