classic 57+498t review

Recommended Posts

hello

i have an epiphone les paul with c57 and 498t and it's a good mix

 

but maybe a bigger outpout level of the bridge pickup would be good

 

i thought that the 498T had more harmonics too

 

sh4 is just only metal 80's and with a bad split

 

so ?

 

what would you put with a c 57 ?

 

c57+ 500t ?

sh1 sh4 ?

 

498t is the mix between paf blues and and hard rock ( i talk about the specifications)

i really don't understand how the 498t is a "hard rock pickup"

 

hard rock needs high ends for guitar solo

 

and i have a f//// epiphone!!

 

my next guitar will be a les paul axcess ! = a better sound than i have (even with modifications)

 

i have a sg new century and the sound is clear, warm : not crystal sound but beautiful

 

epi is cheap :(( or maybe i must try another pickups but it was very difficult !!!

 

i looked for 4 conductors

and all the burstbuckers are not with 4c

 

so, i had no other choices except 500t or dirty fingers maybe ?

 

i think burstbuckers pro have more high ends than C 57 and 498t (less output than it, what a pity !) so it will be good

 

 

it's hard to find the guitar of your dreams and the good sound
