I assume that the pseudo-mudbucker in my Epi Elitist EB-3 is an Arctec or something similar, it mimics a mudbucker sound - a mockbucker -, but its no way near the original in rawness and hoarseness and - alas! - unevenness of string to string output, it's just too well-behaved even in the neck position. But its not the TB Plus sound of the SG RI Mockbucker either. All these modern pups attempting to better on the mudbucker since DiMarzio Model 1 days are - for better or worse - stable horses compared to the wild mustang an old Gibson mudbucker is. Overwound is like cubic inches in an engine, you can fake your way around it, but it's not the real thing.
