Ooh, didn't see that. The ones I've heard sound GREAT!

I have a pair in my Greco bird. At least, the guy I got em from on ebay claimed they were Chandlers.

Funny thing is, they sound almost identical to the Greco pups!  Not that that's a bad thing. Maybe they're marginally brighter, but based on other peoples' comments (and some sound samples somebody here posted long ago, maybe on the old dudepit) I kind of expected them to have a bit more treble than I get from them.

Would you sell those back to me??? Or a set of Greco or Orville pickups???? DESPerately need 2 of those for a 12 String Thunderbird bass I am building. Thanks, Joe jswoquinn@sbcglobal.net 773-259-6926
