Bon ce week end test de micro, je viens de recevoir un set de Greeny Blues de chez David Barfuss que je vais mettre dans ma R9 Lemon.
Citation:
These humbuckers are made alike the pickups Peter Green used on his famous L.P. wich he later gave to Gary Moore !
The bridge pickup is wound with 42 AWG Plain Enamel magnet wire like all those old PAF´s were in the early years.It is wound to 8,3 K Ohm and I use a mismatched coil winging pattern.
The neck pickup is very special and is the secret of Greeny´s special blues tone. Because the original pickup on Peters guitar had been rewound with a not vintage correct magnet-wire in a wrong direction Peter recieved that special tone.It is build for reverse installation and wound to 7,6 K Ohm.It does not use the flipped magnet !
Both , the bridge and the neck position humbucker are scatterwound by hand.
The use of special degaused alnico V magnets gives them a vintage tone wich still gives great attack and articulation without the harshness most modern burst style humbucker have.
