Bare Knuckle Pickups Irish Tour Single Coil Set

Set of three single coil pickups for Start (normal tell me you saw their name ...). Good move into the heart of the matter: Irish Tour, there is growing Rory Gallagher!
then do a description:
The bridge pickup: power extraordiaire, very powerful, not loud, a lot of fishing, the harmonics out of this world ...
micro intermediate may be the worst of the three, a little timid next to the power of the other two ... especially useful on the position 2 and 4 when it is coupled to the other microphones (including the bridge, the best position for 5!)
the neck pickup, a nice round SOND which does not fail to remember that we are growing the explosive blues rock ...

In the end it's very simple, these mics are great for those who love the blues, blues rock and other derivatives in the 60's and 70's. Found in its clean strat personality without caricature ... In full, its a very dry and generous to Rory Gallagher ... I swear to play the intro to the Million Miles Away Blues Junior is a real treat!!
A little anecdote to conclude, I had heard of these mics by chance and I was told a store, custom shop, 14 rue de Douai in Pigalle (www.customshop.fr). I come to the microphones cushy, I tested on a grate of expo ... and revelation, rory is emerging as the notes that I start. In the end I leave with a strat tailored and of course equipped with the famous set ...

Value for money just right (about € 250 the set) taking into account that these pickups are hand made ... A really great set! I take just a small point for the micro intermediate good but below the other two.
