GFS pickups that sound EVO?


Does anyone know of any guitar fetish pickups that are similar sounding to the Evo? or heck even the Evo II?

Re: GFS pickups that sound EVO?


I would just shop around for a used EVO or EVO2 on 3bay if you are concerned about the $, or just save up another $30. I might also suggest trying a guitar with EVOs in it first, they don't work for everyone. The EVO 2 sounds much better IMHO.

The GFS pickups are pretty well made, but I don't think there is one that sounds like an EVO, I haven't tried all their stuff either. If you really want a GFS, try contacting them and explaining what kind of sound you are going for, they are nice guys and will usually get back to you quickly.

What kind of sound are you going for?

I doubt that GFS have any EVO sounding pups. I have a Dream 180 and it sounds like a PAF PRO, but hotter, and maybe a little less defined.

Going for a Vai type sound. Certain midrange frequency's and stuff.
