Hi,
I'm new here. Wish I'd found this place earlier.
I'm primarily a Tele player, but have an 80s MIJ 62 RI Strat that I put Seymour Duncan Antiquity IIs into a few years ago. I thought that these were the ultimate non-vintage pickups and just perfect for this guitar. Still do.
But I've been jamming along to some E72 recordings, and sounding - ok...
Anyway, I know many here are high on (amongst other stuff ) Allen voodoo 69s for Alligator tones. I could probably swing for these, but don't want to.
Key question: Anybody using Duncan Ant II Surfer pu's for strats? Can you get in the Alligator ballpark?
I'm using a bf deluxe reverb in a basement. Has a Weber 12f150 instead of the crucial JBL.
I LOVE what I've got. I don't really want to replace these pickups. But I just want to get closer to that bite that Jerry got.
2nd question: What's the least expensive\best bang for the buck boost\stratoblaster available? Would a Zvex super hard on work ok? I have one, but it's not functioning right now. How necessary is a boost?
Thank you for reading\replying.
Tony
