Post that on the SDUGF. Blueman335 will be apoplectic.

Ok. Who is this guy?
RE: Get a Rope! - lreese - 08-15-2016
Don't know who he is - saw the article linked on another forum.
Anyone can feel free to post - I prefer to keep a distance from anything SD Co. related these days.
RE: Get a Rope! - Big Flannel - 08-15-2016
His FAQ page reads like a Myspace questionnaire.

He is obviously playing the wrong pups.
Maybe someone should send him a Fralin, or BK to play with. If he's atleast open to accepting that it's a humbucker, it should change his mind.
I'll agree partially. Most Low level, generic, humbuckers do suck. Those Epi waxbuckers are horrible, and sound just as he describes. But, there is a huge difference in them and a higher lever, or custom pup. Good pups come alive compared to cheap shit.
I think he's lacking experience with good pups, amd has no idea what he's really talking about. He's probably owned nothing but Strats/super strats, and has no idea what a real HB sounds like in the right guitar.

I LOVE humbuckers.
My #1 has the classic JB/Jazz set.
My #2 has Zhangbuckers, built upon request "Pure Handwound" Duane Plus/Brownbucker.
My #3 has Dmz's rebuilt by MJ to Brobucker and A2Pro specs. Standard sized pickups won't fit the axe. I also have a Custom Custom that I replaced with the Brobucker.
Even when I had LesStrat I had replaced the single coils with Hot Rails/Cool Rails/Hot Rails.
I LOVE humbuckers.

I've probably closest to agreeing to the page's author...
However I don't. Use the right tool for the job.
Right now I think SD Co. does suck (not because of its products), but that's another story and subject to how bad I need to fart at the moment.

So, you are the political speech writer for the Trumps.
