Duncans first production pickup to use an Alnico 8 magnet, the Alternative 8 starts with hot coils wound for maximum output. With the addition of the Alnico 8 magnet, output is enhanced with a huge, punchy sound, full of fat mids and present upper-mids. This is a dynamic pickup that doesn’t get “sizzly” or dark like some high-output ceramic magnet pickups. Recommended for bridge position. Matches great with a moderate output neck pickup like the TB-1n ’59 or the TB-2n Jazz Model. Pairs well with a distortion pedal like the SFX-05 Lava Box or the SFX-08 Power Grid distortion. Works great in most guitars set up for humbuckers, especially in balanced and warm instruments and those with rosewood fingerboards.
