Hi John,

Your Pickup Saved My Guitar’s Life!

I have a Custom-built Swamp Ash Dinky replica. It’s a beautiful guitar, but I could not get the sounds I wanted out of it. I had already tried three different pickups in this guitar with no luck. I had the AttackBucker in the neck slot, which sounded good. But this guitar has a massive bottom-end, and I couldn’t get a clear, sharp bite out of the low-E string to save my life.

Then I tried the AttackBucker in the bridge postion. Initially, I was unsure, because it’s not a high-output, and that’s what I would normally use in an 80’s type shred machine like this. But it totally brought this guitar to life. By playing with the pickup height and with the adjustment screws, I sharpened up the soggy bottom end and also got a fantastic, thick sound sound from the D, G, B, and E strings – something I’ve never really gotten before.

This pickup is throwing out pinch harmonics all over the place. It has a great, full-bodied tone, and it’s LOUD! Through a high-gain Marshall, it leaps out at you and barks like a killer Rottweiler!  http://media.putfile.com/AttackBucker-004

AttackBucker #004

P.S. According to the ancient Japanese tradition, now that you've saved my guitar's life, you are responsible for that life. To that end, I think you are now obligated to make a neck pickup for my guitar as nice as the AttackBucker. And also a really high-output version of the AB Bridge for my new Custom Lynch Bengal.

Domo Morigato, Sensei John!
