Why are people seeming surprised that a fender pickup peforms well? The American stock pups always sound good. The Mex ones aint bad either. All 3 pups sounded great
The SsL 3 does have the HB type of mid push, which is very noticable side by side.To acknowledge you prefer the others simply means you're playing the right guitar.I , as well, prefer vintage single coils. Thinking the 3 would match well with the Texas Specials; they have a crazy amount of output and low end for a straight SC.Also maybe not the worst choice for slide, with the fatter P90ish EQ.
Think I'd take the stock everytime.The Tex Specs are almost P90's, but the various other derritives just lose more than they add, - the TB's aren't bad, - just not as good.TBH, even many of the cheaper stock MiM types, with the exposed magnets, are best left alone; they ain't pretty, but they work just fine.Much depends on the amp and speakers.
I have Fender custom shop Texas specials in my stratocaster, plenty of power. People say " but they're trebley". News flash....that's what your EQ on your amp is for.
They have a certain tone? sounds great on your playing. I been using ultex Dunlop Primtones for the warmth. Galli's were did find them on ebay? plus there italian:) gotta be goood:)
Ken Aiello thanks for your kind words! Take a look here: www.ebay.it/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=galli+picks&LH_PrefLoc=2 www.gallistrings.com/en/accessories/picks I live in Italy and I buy this picks in a music store near Venice. I love this picks!
Depends on what you want. I like more of a Les Paul vibe in a Strat body. My vote goes to SSL-3. In person, to my ears, SSL-3 sounds like a more articulate humbucker. I grew up on Malmsteen and GnR. Don't like the twang
@@i3oosted maybe they dont want to rout their guitar, or buy a new one. maybe a single coil sized humbucker doesn't look as good, or a humbucker doesn't look as good in a strat????
All of them sound shrill and ugly to me. Hate strat bridge pickup sound. As I can see, there are many strange people who actually love that spiky sound. I would like to hear ssl-3 with a baseplate. Maybe than it would sound beefy like a tele, sound that I like.
Absolutely note perfect demo! What a great way of comparing three pickups.Twangbanger type bridge pups have a lot going for them
Evil Sheep Guitar Pickups Thaaaaaanks!!!!!
Twang banger for the win.
many thanks for the review, I was looking for a good twangbanger review andI found yours extremely useful!
I'm happy for you man!!! Good twang!!! 😉
I'm a SSL 3 fan all the way!!

Twangbanger sounds awesome!
SsL3 is the top!!!!
Lorenzo Zagni yessss
Like the sound of that SSL3--do you find it overpowers your other pickups, though?
Matt the Owl yes! He got a lot of gain more than others
Why don’t they offer a flat pole option on the Twang Banger? Seems like a no brainer
Maybe the custom shop
Oh that Twang Banger!!! Where have you been all my life?
Would have been nice to hear the neck pickup, in the clean tone
Fender is not that bad :)

Sounds like the guy was playing through a different amp with each one

I like fender
SSL-3 ftw, sound a lot like humbucker
Then get a humbucker?

Twang Banger all the way.
Twang banger takes this one.
Twangbanger sounds great. Fender sounds really good. SSL3... not great.
The Deep Further Fact for me the ssl3 is good for hard rock and metal. Too dark for other genres
@@zaloraltest SSL3 with 500K pots, have more treble?
Stick with the Fender

The SSL3 doesn’t even belong in this comparo.
They all sound the same
Sure! 🤣🤣🤣
Def not.
If you can't clearly tell them apart, I'm betting you're a humbucker player.
SSL-3 sound like shit...
Sitha Puth 😂😂😂
ssl3 is the worst
