torca Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Hi, I was just curious about the output of these pickups that come stock in many Epiphones. How would you describe them, can they be a bit muddy? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovedoggie1 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 They aren't terrible, and split they have a decent single coil sound. Not quite strat territory, but okay. Haven't tried them with just a cap change, though - that can make worlds of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you describe them, can they be a bit muddy? Thanks in advance. Man, there are SEVERAL varieties of EPI HB Pups out there, and they will sound different, depending on guitar!!! For Example: My own LP STUDIO and LP CLASSIC came stock with exact same pups. In Studio, they had more bottom and midrange response, less highs. Some folks call that "muddy". But in the LP Classic, pups sounded "Normal". Different materials used in construction. And EPI's pups break down into "Classic" and "Classic Plus", with the "Plus" being wound hotter, and generally used in Bridge position. Go to GEAR REVIEW Sticky in Lounge, read reviews of 2 above guitars for more detail. Decide WHICH guitar you are interested in, perhaps we can provide an answer for you, as there are SO MANY pup combinations.
