Re: Hmm
Slash happens to use it... the Alnico II Pro should be freed from the Slash association as it's a good humbucker per se.

from a user's perspective, i find the Alnico II Pro a very just pickup for those who are into more midrange warmth, nothing excessive like the Duncan JB. the AIIP also has enough bass to propel guitars which are lacking in this aspect. i find it very rewarding in the neck. although this humbucker is targetted at players who in the blues-crunch territory, IMO it's good for everything else as well.

ok..if u wanna be fussy about it...Slash uses those pickups! but seriously, whenever i mention the words SD Alnico II, Slash's name comes in automatically. Even the auntie at Davis told my friend that before, haha. Well probably because Slash has been to Davis before to endorse some stuff and for an autograph sesssion. Hmm.. Slash seems to like Singapore, he was here quite some time back at HRC (Hard Rock Cafe), and no one recognized him at that time cos he tied his hair up. LoL..

Slash was at Davis?? more like the Davis people met him at NAMM...
nothing wrong with the Alnico-Slash association, but it restricts the pickup's reputation in a hard-rock territory which is a little sad. the Alnico II Pro is capable of handling various tonal requirements, form jazz to metal.

yes, it's true, Slash was at Davis. There was a looong queue for his autograph, from the basement of peninsula all the way past funan centre, haha. too bad i wasn't there! argh! by the time i rushed down, he was already gone there are a few photos displayed at Davis which shows that Slash was there. janet, his daughter, posed and took a pic with him too, lucky gal! the photos are displayed above the door frame of davis i think..

I was considering a 59 in the neck but it was a bit to bright for me.
I don't think my epi lp classic does justice to the pups but it still sounds warm to me.
waiting to buy a tokai LS120 and stick those suckers in! come on davis! bring one in for me to try! hahaha
