twiggy Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Are pickups in Dot and Sheraton any different? Or are they putting same ones in covered humbucker models like riviera (one with full size hums) or even les paul??
generation zero Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Some of the models do get interchanged... I know the sticker on the bottom of a standard LP's neck pickup says "LP:NECK, DOT:NECK/BRIDGE" so I would imagine the dot gets a LP neck pup in both positions. Not sure about the sheraton, I would guess it gets the same... could be wrong though.

The Dot and Sheraton, for example, have the "57" in both positions. LPs, G400s (I think) and the Dot Studio have the "HOT" pickup at the bridge position.
Rallye44 Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 G400s (I think) and the Dot Studio have the "HOT" pickup at the bridge position. Correct (for the G-400). I just took the chrome covers off my stock G-400 PU's tonight and this is what the stickers on the back of them said: NECK 57CH(G) DOT: Neck' date=' Bridge LP: Neck BCH [u']Bridge[/u] HOTCH(G) LP: Bridge BCH Matt
highxj Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Hmm, the pickups in my new Dot Deluxe both said "G-400" on the back.
animalfarm Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I just pulled the pickups from my EPI LP Classic Quilt top while changing strings. SEZ: Neck, HB6N, 8.12K Bridge, HOTHB8B, 13.14K
