Frequently Asked Questions
The Double Blacks are slightly lower output and have a more focused midrange than the ’57 Classics, resulting in a more vintage-leaning tone.
While versatile, the Alnico 3 magnets and lower output might feel a bit restrained for extreme high-gain applications; consider a hotter pickup for that.
Generally yes, but always check your guitar's wiring and mounting style; the standard spacing should be a safe bet.
