Close but a bit less bright than Gibson standard humbuckers. Similar impedence - typically wound slightly hotter (negligible difference). Alnico 3 magnets - slightly mellower with great clarity. This description is concerning the classic Super58 ONLY. Some newer "58" models have ceramic magnets. I consider the original Super 58s a great all-around pickup. Quite sweet-sounding. |
