Please don't do that to a Taylor...
It will most probably sound like crap...

I second that...... It's a waste to install such crappy pickups into a bloddy wonderful guitar.

Before you go off..... I AM a heavy epiphone/gibson fanboy........ but I just think that their pickups suck....

just epiphone pickups

gibson pickups like the burstbucker pro i love it to bits

I know dude, but I'm desperate and my wallet is empty. Well, Kurt did just that for that wonderful martin d-28 or d-18.

haa...that big baby ain't that wonderful anymore after I've tried the full blown Taylors. Anyway, I can upgrade the pickups when I have more money.
So right now I just wanna know how to assemble the pickups.
Well actually I don't quite like Gibson's P-90 pickup on LP juniors... Sounds kinda flat sometimes, too snappy sometimes. But there's no doubt about the legendary humbuckers on other LPs

So pls help me out as soon as possible. I need the Big Baby to fit thorugh an amp by 2 weeks

P90s are not humbuckers, they are single coils, of course it will sound snappy... But they are a tad thicker than singles...

The magnetic pickup will make your Taylor sound like crap, no doubt about it... It's best that you get a removable soundhole pickup or something that won't do any permanent damage to your guitar...

Artist can mod the hell of their gears (good or bad) because first, they got them for free; second, money ain't an object for them...

I don't know dude but I seem to like the amplified sound + the acoustic sound when played clean or a little bit of chorus effect. I don't know it's me or what but the tone seems to be thicker this way and it sounds more layered.

btw any recommendations for a removable soundhole pickup? and how much they cost.

JS has the DiMarzio NaturAL Acoustic if im not mistaken. . . quite famous

fishman also offers a few. . .

depends on your budget tho. . . fishman and lr baggs are famous brands. . .

but no baggs dealer here. . .

woh fat has budget ones. . .

ive never heard the DiMarzio but the fishman are good. . .

The Dimarzio one is quite cheap... It's like a sticker, just stick it to the top of your guitar and you're good to go...

i remember seeing a seymour duncan one for around RM300+.

anyone know how much Fender '57/'62 and Custom Shop '69 retailing at?
thanks

when i was study in uk..lot of ppl change thier epiphone pickups to seymour duncan's pickups....so am i ^^

so u likey to follow trendy?

But the Jazz and JB combo is really good.
Tried it before, Complements each other well.

yea, change to seymour duncans...BLACKOUTS

Aiyo...... if you're going for Blackouts, I'd rather go for the EMG combo....

but i already have 2 guitars with EMGs...AND i got another spare set of EMGs lying around...overdose already.
i seriously wanna get the blackouts soon

for those active pickup users, how long before you have to change batteries? consider the amount of playing time too..

for EMGs, the manual or forgot where i read it says, even if you play everyday say about 1-2hrs...your next battery change will only be in the next 6-9 months.

how about your own personal experience?

i dont play enough...so even 1yr on the batt is still going strong.
