WB pickups. Habaneros to be specific. The clean tone is polite yet authoritative, but when you crank 'em they're loud, growling rock n' roll attitude. They have a good focused sound either way and they don't get muddy.

I still like my Gibby 57 PUPS.

Gibson pickups for the passive stuff.

(I own the BB 1 and 2 set, BB pro set, 490/498 set, and a P-94...giggles!)

I'm kinda torn on the Actives though....SD Blackouts are killer, but EMG has more accessories....the overall product from them is probably a wee bit better if you take into account the wiring kits and sheer amount of options they offer.

Rio Grande makes some really great pups as well.

sweet pups indeed

im a lover of Gibson pups, like i say, ive no idea why they get slammed so much....

I voted Seymour Duncan. I just love the JB/59 combo.

Gibson has some very good pickups. The BB Pro comes to mind. The 57 aren't bad, but a little low on output for my tastes.
I think the 500T/496R pair works great for an Explorer, but it doesn't cut it in a Les Paul.

I think it has something to do with the prices they charge.

Either way, I still wouldn't mind checking out a set of Iommis someday...

WCR Darkbursts for me.

[Horse]

Zep,

just checked out the WCR site, very cool sound clips, liking the darburst and Godwood pups..... nice choice. is that the raw nickel covers you got there?

[Led Zep Fan]

I ordered them in double black and put some aged DMC covers on them.

[Sky]

Seymour Duncan!
I'm starting to have a bit more respect for DiMarzio as well.

I pulled out my WCR Darkburst Set for Haeussel 1959 Boutiques handwound, skatterwound made in Germany. They are such good quite expensive like WCRs but worked better then the DBset.
No - I don't look back!
