DIRTY FINGERS

[drzing]

So, I see some Gibson guitars being equipped with two dirty fingers pickups,

after having got a 'matched' pair of them (those are very tall guys), that makes

me wonder, is it there really a difference between those pickups?

 

After trying them, as to check for functionality as well, I can say they're slightly

different in personality, but it doesn't makes quite much difference whether one

is here or there.

 

Something that also comes to my mind - is that a DF at the bridge might mix best with

another pickup on the neck position, rather than another DF, anybody else agrees?

 

Also, at the Gibson site I see only one model of DF being listed... Still that doesn't

means much.

Ok, I got it, they're all the same.

 

Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Still, are these handwounded? I can feel a certain sligthly distinct 'personality'

between mine. Both are very loud, and punchy, I don't know how that thing doesn't

beeps the whole time, I would like maybe some more feedback.

 

I bought them off ebay, these guys by no means are near new, despite it might have

had to get a new cord and such, they actually look like I would expect an 80's

pickup to look like. I can see the plastic is worn, has cracks, but no serial no

nothing behind it.

They would be all the same indeed, but not handwound. The pickup can be used in both neck and bridge position, it does not have one recommended position from our side.
