kevoT Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 nice guitar!(even though i don't like the zoot suit's very much) do you know what pickups are in it? they look very familiar, i think i have seen them in the goddess series too. Congrats!
Dub-T-123 Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 The pickups are the super hot 496r and 500t. They're wound on a clear bobbin. The Goddess series used pickups with clear bobbins as well as colored wire that matches the finish. I think it's a cool look. I personally don't really care for the 496r and 500t though clear bobbins or not. They're a little harsh and hot for my tastes. I should add that they have a ceramic magnet. I prefer alnico. There is a lot of hate for the Zoot Suit here. I like the rainbow one.
kevoT Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 The les paul goddess i tried was just ruined, primarily because of the pickups, they sounded really thin and lifeless! i know it wasn't the amp as i had the same settings trying a les paul tribute, and that thing sang! i still like sg's better though
rampagingsloth Posted May 22, 2010 Author Posted May 22, 2010 I found that if you roll the volume back, the pickups clean up a lot.
