Hi everyone thanks heaps for all the info on the pups (I'm still trying to workout whats in there at the moment but its not that important). I have recently discovered Callaham Fralin pickups on the net . Has anyone tried them? "They are wound on specs we have measured from PreCBS guitars. They are 5.8,5.85, 6.3 neck to bridge."Bill Callaham
Does the cryo make up for the under wind in terms of fullness of tone in the mid section? Also whats the deal with the blender pot it doesn't explain it very well on the fralin site.
cheers
Jack

I cant give many details, but I have a set. They sound great, of course. That is all I can offer you.

The Callaham/Fralins are a sweet sounding set to be sure. I've had them in my Callaham S-model and a Frannkenstrat I built up (Fender RI body, warmoth neck). Clean, sweet, chimey but with a nice punch to them. Sound great clean or distorted and are well balanced from pickup to pickup. They notch positions (2 and 4) quack like there's no tomorrow.

Full mids from a strat pickup??? That's what Humbuckers and P90s are for. A good strat set should be slightly scooped in the mids imho - and these are. If you want more mids he's having a new set wound the H/SRV Specials - maybe these will have more mids.


So many pedals, so little time...
