Hi,
yesterday I changed the Duncans on my Edwards LP-85. I ordered Haeussels
but they are not on stock and will be delivered in 3 weeks, so I installed Bill Lawrence L500L and L500N from my Ibanez Artist to try them out - Hell what a change. I made a short recording with the Ibanez Artist with the Lawrence Pickups, The Edwards stock and then afterwards with the L500s. The Edwards with L500 is a total winner. From the wood sound, the Edwards beats the Ibanez and this can again be heard via the amp. But in my opinion only with the Lawrence pickups, you can really hear the difference.
In my opinion the SD Jeff Beck at the bridge just don't shows, what you really play, the attack is weak and it sounds somehow compressed. The 500L sounds much more clear, but still is quite aggressive. The only thing could like more is some more bass, here the SH4 has alot more.
On the neck, the clarity of the L500 above the SD '59 is breathtaking.
I am curious if the Haussels can be even better.

. Anyway I am totally glad with the current setup.
