Duncan Custom 8

Hey guys! Just wanted to share a tidbit with you.. You are all probably aware of the Seymour Duncan Custom pickup right?

Well in case you didnt know,
The Custom custom is the same pup but with an Alnico 2 magnet.
Custom 5 is the same but with an Alnico 5 .
The Custom has a Ceramic.

My Favorite is a Custom 8. Alnico 8 magnet. Have to make these myself as they arent a production pup.
Custom 8 has a similar tonal spread to the Custom, but the warmth of alnico.. It has an amazing singing lead tone..

I have a Custom 5 on my Hamer and I am extremaly pleased with it. Incredible clarity and articulation. It's a very unforgiving pickup though.
