codyyy 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2015 I hope I am not beating a dead horse, if I am please point me to the appropriate threads. I want to try a different pickup in my SG. I play a variety of music, mainly classic rock and a small amount of blues. I play through a 1970 Twin Reverb with Weber Chicago speakers if that matters. I basically want something as an "upgrade" if that makes sense. In the meantime I will look through YouTube. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RJ70 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2015 I own a Gibson 2001 SG Special. I didn't like the sound of the stock pickups. I thought the sound was thin and harsh. I had Seymour Duncan (Vintage Blues SH-1N & SH-1B) pickups installed. These sound allot like the Burstbuckers on my Les Paul (Joe Bonamassa) limited edition guitar. Both the Burstbuckers and Seymour Duncan's have a smooth mellow Blues sound. I think you could probably hear both the Burstbuckers & Seymour Duncan pickups on You Tube.
