Ceramic Bridge Alnico Neck

I prefered it to my alnico slash pickup.

Ceramic bridge alnico neck.

Bridge humbucker introduced in 1994 to fit in rg400 series models. You see ceramic is easier to come by than alnico making it a cheaper magnet to make. Both swapped to alnico 8 magnets. Tight driving lead pickup with excellent dynamics.

I have a ceramic neck pickup in my guitar as i found it had a better top end really cut through and a decent amount of mid and lower end. Alnico 5 bridge and ceramic neck anyone. Usually combined with infinity 1 in neck position and infinity single 1 in mid. By some players the ceramic magnets are given a bad reputation when compared to alnico which is probably due to their association with cheaper instruments.

Brutal active aggression and passive punch in the same guitar. Modern humbucker ceramic voicings. Great in both positions or commonly paired with alnico neck. The emg retro active hot 70 set utilizes ceramic magnets in the bridge and alnico 5 in the neck producing high output van halen and zz top like tone of the late 70 s.

This traditional open coil design set has a vintage look that players love. Bridge sounds like a classic metal bridge humbucker and the neck is a little cruncher brighter and snappier than your usual alnico neck. This was a gfs crunchy pat in the bridge ceramic and a gfs fat pat in the neck alnico 5. Alnico 5 magnet for individual string clarity.

One of my ibanez came stock like that. Crisp searing crunch tight bass with no mud and a growl. Ceramic magnets are made of ceramic surprise. All the musicality power and explosiveness of alnico.

Modern humbucker gold set 1 alnico neck 1 ceramic bridge original and totally re imagined fishman fluence pickups are free from the hum noise and frustrating inductance issues that plague even the most coveted wire wound pickups revealing pure uncorrupted and musical tone. But in the bridge some say they are duller and i dont think that is entirely true it may sound like it. I think it s a pretty decent combination. The second guitar in my sloppy pickup magnet swap test.
