Kinman Strat replacements PU's

Post by Buck Dilly »

Regarding Kinman Strat Replacement PU's:
I have heard good things about these noisless PU's, but I would like the opinion of my Forum brethren. I trust your ears more than most guitarists. (I apologize in advance to guitarist who may take offense to this.)

I had a set in a Strat that were great..I sold that guitar but I have a Kinman in the bridge position of my current Strat and it sounds good to me. It plays nicely with the other two single coils, but one of these days I'll scare up two more Kinmans. Since I am more of a Tele guy, I may not be as picky as some about Strat tone, but if noise is getting you down I think the Kinmans are a good choice...

I put Duncans in my Tele and they are good. But I wanted something even closer to a single coil sound. The Duncans just don't have enought bite. Anyone else??<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Buck Dilly on 04 August 2004 at 11:55 AM.]</p></FONT>
