Tone rider pickups $106 ultimate blues for Mexican strat

[TEB]

Dropped them in yesterday and they sound awesome, playing through a old twin then a supro to a 1 watt tube for price they sound great. Neck middle bridge hold Alnico 5’s Grey bottoms.
Dcr neck was 6.2 middle 6.3 bridge 6.8
Wiring is all vintage braid the poles are vintage staggered
The winding neck and bridge clockwise middle counter clockwise.
New pots green chicket cap and 250 CT’s on pots.

If you are a budget player as I sure I like Seymour Duncan’s the man makes fine product. To save few dollars and to make a 2017 Mexican strat sound like it was made in 67 were all looking for decent tone I tried these for first time and am pleased.

1. I've actually met Seymour, friend of a friend ...

Hung out a couple barbeques he was at at my buddies in Clayton, CA, circa 1999.

Anyways, pics or it didn't happen

5. I don't know Apple too well but don't they include cloud storage?

And if they're in the cloud I thought they had URL's?

If so you should be able to post the URL on DU. May have to allow sharing, but it should be doable.

If my understanding is correct

Otherwise can install Imgur app on your phone and share that way I'd think

6. I'll ask my kids

? Was Seymour laid back I read article how he brought either Hendrix or page a set of pickups

8. He was very chill and down to earth, cool ass dude ... an old hippy type really ...

I vaguely remember that apocryphal story and also forget to whom it was, but Hendrix seems more likely ... I wish I'd asked about it at the time I saw him.

7. It's nice to know that you can get the vintage sound on the cheap.

I have an '80's Ibanez strat, and if I weren't also distracted by acoustic guitar, piano, singing, and songwriting, I would pop one of those Tone Riders in for sure.
