SSO's unofficial pickup tester
I've done a magnet shootout with the black winter bridge before and have a bunch of clips of it, but figured it was time to make a new, more comprehensive version.
So the magnets I have on hand are: Alnico 4, ALnico 5, Alnico 8, ALnico 9, Ceramic, and Neodymium. I'm not expecting big changes between alnico 4 and 5, or 8 and 9, but we'll see.
For comparison's sake I'm going to keep the pickup the same height from the strings, use the same IRs, same riffs, same strings, same amp eq, same guitar, etc.
For my own sake, the riffs are limited to 2 clean riffs and 2 dirty riffs per magnet.
Here's the standard ceramic black winter bridge in my PRS Mushok (in BEADF#B):
I'll be adding soundcloud playlists of each as I go. I'll also be making a yt vid with side by side comparisons of them later on.
