So i was fortunate enough to get to try out a set of Ron Ellis guitar pickups. The 50/60 with FAT bridge. Thank you to my friend Leech!!!

You can check the pickups out at Reverb.com

Well anyway... It is scary to do sound comparisons with these types of pickups, because being in Manila, it's not that easy to acquire nice gear, so it really is a dime a dozen if you get to see the light of day of such interesting pieces. It's good to know i have a few friends who are really looking for that holy grail of tone... and you get lynched because you are doing it wrong yadda yadda yadda.

Yet this was a fulfilling experience for me. This is the first time i've tried such pickups and it made me smile and it made me play because of what i heard... Take note...i am using my regular gear and that sound came out of it!

Well, the question... Would i get myself to purchase something like that??? Honestly i don't want to think or begin, because it's gonna be a very scary ditch and it would be very hard to climb out, and i am curious about Ron Ellis' humbucker pickups! If the strat pickups sounded this good... what about the humbuckers??? That's where i have to stop...

I had a final thoughts video but dang it got corrupted. so I just left it with me playing as soulfully as i can with the short time i had with guitar that had them Ron Ellis pickups, i wouldn't play the guitar that much if it still had those stock pickups.

People in internet land will always say, "I hear no difference", "It sound's the same", "My pickups sound better" yadda yadda yadda...
Well you won't know about something until YOU yourself experience it... Luckily...i did. So it's something that would make me wonder and be in awe.

So last words to say... i suddenly became a fan of the pickup builder and wish him more business to create his wonderful pickups and at the same time say thank you for making them. It's an experience i will never forget, and i hope i do not chase it!!!

To Ron Ellis... I salute you on your craft!!!!
