single coil or humbucker = clean tone ?

[foxblinkhope]

alright. im kinda new to guitar playing. playing my father classical guitar for 6 mth now, and i wanna buy an electric guitar cause playing those pop punk song on a classical guitar does not sound so nice.

alright so i play stuffs like mainly blink 182 stuffs and i was wondering if a single coil pick up would have a clean tone or only a humbucker pickup have the clean tone?

please help! thanks to every one who reply to this!

 

[markedymark]

clarity and type of pickup doesnt make a sound clearer, as in, humbuckers and single coils arent the thing to look at, since you can use both, its more of the kind of humbucker or single coil, what magnets and all that.

just get a les paul or a 335 :lol:

 

[foxblinkhope]

335? i was looking at this sx lespaul copy with 2 humbuckers pickups. but now the store does not bring it in anymore and all that left is the single coils one so wondering if there is any differences?

 

[markedymark]

of course there are differences. try it. find out. what fits you might not be what we like.

[RazrAsh]

'cuse me, but what is chug?

 

[RazrAsh]

chug= drink

context as in when u chug down your beer. :lol:

so if the guitar got the power to chugga chugga, its reflects on the player's ability to chugga chugga :lol:
