Epiphone B.B.King Lucille pickup upgrade


Guido-Italy

Recommended Posts

Hello guys I'm Guido from Italy.

I have a question about pickup of Epiphone B.B.King Lucille. On this guitar Epiphone mount '57 Epiphone pickup humbucker instead of Gibson original 490R and 490T .

Searching on web seems that range frequenquency working of varitone are the same both on Gibson and Epiphone versione of Lucille .

Maybe I'm thinking to upgrade pickup of my Epiphone Lucille with the original 490R and 490T that have a low cost , you can see both at My link

The question are two :

1- Is it true that two varitone works at the same frquency ?

2- Pickups upgrade is a suitale upgrade to a a better suond than the original pickups ?

3- It's possibile in practice do this upgrade with no mounting or electrcial problem ?

Thanks for your answers

BYE

Guido
