### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Pickups!
  

*by J***C on Reviewed in the United States on 25 October 2024*

I was worried they weren't going to be enough output, no worries! They're direct mounted so they're pretty low and still got great output! Great tone too, nice and balanced and tight bass response!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
    Gran Pastilla, muy rockera y polivalente. Para el puente.
  
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in Spain on 23 March 2018*

La compre para sustituir la Pearly Gates que tenía de serie en el puente, junto con una 59 en el mástil. La PG no me acababa de convencer con un sonido muy "TEXAS", no me acaba de gustar ya que no busco ese tipo de sonido, y no me convencía la combinación con la 59 del mástil. Esta Duncan Custom es una pastilla muy polivalente, con mucha definición y una salida bastante buena, cruje pronto si la aprietas, pero es justo lo que andaba buscando más dinámica y respuesta. Te vale desde Rock clásico hasta Metal con muy buena definición. Y combina mucho mejor con la 59, la guitarra está ahora más equilibrada en sonidos.
