That's right, it's pickup time again :D
This is related to me previous T-top thread,
but it's not so much trying to figure out what Randy Rhoads used.
That's...already acquired knowledge [tongue]

Anyway, as you probably already know, Gibson released a Randy Rhoads tribute LPC some time ago.
No, I haven't played one but I would probably be better off with a genuine '74 LPC :) cheaper too ;)
So, the pickups listed in the new model are called Super '74s, made by Gibson of course :)
What baffles me is that spec. wise, they don't match up with the specs of the T-tops
that was in Randys original [confused] you know, short Alnico5 magnets versus Alnico4 magnets
in the new model.

...so...to sum it up, has anyone that played both models, made any comparison between the 2?
and is it possible to acquire the Super 74s without having to buy the RR tribute?
