I dont think the difference is night and day per say, but i think there is enough of a difference that justified the amount of work put into it. Good work!
Hope you find the right recipe with your experimentation. What’s really cool is that very few pickups if any are designed with both the extended scale length and the low tuning in mind, so you’re on to something here! Would be extra cool if you made pickups that fit the original Gretsch Humbucker metal casing so they can be dropped in without having to do any woodwork. Looking forward to seeing where the experiments take you!
I imagine a lot of people would buy such pickups, including me. Another interesting mod would be an evertune to control pitch drift and get away with smaller gauge strings.
Bro - I thought you were joking about making new pickups in the last video. Then I see this video that you've actually made some lol!!! Surely Loathe will get you to make some ASAP!
man, this guitar has really caught my eye over the last few months.. I've watched all your other videos on this guitar and am just blown away by its quality! I love the tuning that you had in this video too! I really want to know how this guitar sounds with slight overdrive, may be something similar to Loathe's song Screaming? 👀 Thank you for the uploads dude, your work is inspiring! ❤
There’s certainly a difference in tone. Good or bad is subjective so it’s really about what you think! Cheers on your skills and continued stellar content
Wonder if anyone has rewound the stock mini humbuckers , I’m sure they have but although the full size HB looks great in it the minis with the giant pole screws are just synonymous with Gretsch . Still something cool about baritone’s with single coils and lower output pickups if you like the clank that they make. It actually looks pretty cool without pup rings though kinda gives it some Malcolm Mojo .
dude they sound so nice!! i got mine with a push pull knob for split sounds and would love to see you do the same and see what sounds you can come up with!
But then the consumers would realize just how much of the pickup industry is buzzwords and snake oil and we can't have that😂 It's much easier and profitable to just say "tight low end", "focused mids", and "soaring highs" instead of actually providing any useful information lol.
@@Slamthulhu Here's the thing though, you can do both. Celestion and Emminence both do so with their speakers. You can hire 18th century poets to write your product descriptions whilst providing useful data.
@@RubyRoks While that is true speakers make A LOT more of a difference than pickups though, in my experience the speaker/cab makes up like 80% of the tone, while pickups make up maybe like 5% **at best**
I really love the sound of both pickups, but I feel like something similar to the seymor Duncan scarlet and scourge set would fit the baritone very well. I have those pickups in my mark holcomb prs and I absolutely love how versatile they are.
They sound so much better than the stock pups. I just ordered one of these guitars, can I please buy an exact copy of these? If possible. I’m in Australia.
You’re in uncharted territory, which also makes it exciting to navigate I’m sure. I look forward to seeing more updates until you find the pickups you think are the best for this guitar. Have you ever thought of putting in an evertune? I know it would be a bitch, but it would be interesting to see.
How to: making your boss jealous 😅
Erik: Oy where’s my set?
I can see Erik be like: "okay Rayn, let me have a pair of those" 😂

"How do these pickups sound? :)"
*produces the best noise I've ever heard on a stringed instrument*
"I made my own pickups" instant subscribe lol thanks brothet
I just ordered mine, I’m so freaking hyped, you’re helping keep that hype train going 😤
Those pickups sound great. I would love pickups like that for my 30"baritone
Loving the baritone video series!

All the videos you've done so far are so interesting. Thank you, Ryan
I hear a big difference! Magnets do a huge deal as well! Dropping the height just a tad bit more would clear it even more! Awesome work!
My boy with the back to back content 🙌🙌
No promises that this will continue lol

I just bought one of these 🤤 I can’t wait to play it
Just ran the DIs Through my setup, And those pickups are HUGE! Really Great Job Man!

they're both good, but kinda like the Stock Pickups more. Great Job bro! keep at it!
New sub due to your awesome content! Over the top with your humbucker build and frequency response sweep! 🤘

Great video Ryan!
more baritone vid pls!, love your work
Great Video ❤ Actually liked the stock PUs more but that’s just personal taste
You have no idea how badly i wish pickup companies would just make frequency response plots of their pickups.

@@Slamthulhu I don't disagree. I'm just saying an informed consumer is better for the market
Getting this one because of you so good.

Loving the content! I really need one of those baritones now...
sounds very balanced
They sound great, to suit the aesthetic you might consider putting a filtertron style pickup covers on them?
They sound so much better than the stock pups. I just ordered one of these guitars, can I please buy an exact copy of these? If possible. I’m in Australia.
Yippee!!!!
I imagine a Gretsch signature model with fullsize humbucker routing.

7:00 my jaw just about hit the ground 😮
You should have tried clipping the edges of the ears on the pickups themselves. They sound great though.
What are the inductance and capacitance values for each pickup (and their overall impedances)?
Sounds massive
Buen aporte. Me quedo con las pastillas originales de fábrica. Saludos desde Chile.
Can you make a version of those pickups that doesn’t require extra routing or chiseling?
please upload more i love yuor videos and would you recomend the baritone(i love loathe and lower tuning)
please do a collab with spectre sound studios it would be the best thing since sliced bread
So awesome i would love to learn to make pick ups well done! Earned a sub from me!
Sounds really good, just bought one, I’m gonna have to change pickups cause yours sounds too good.
Yuuup. Need
Hear me out…..P90’s 😅
pickup company when?
Why not rewiring the gretsch pickup to your spec, instead of building new one and go through butchering your new guitar
Because modding and experimentation is fun! And I prefer having the sound of the full sized humbucker over the stock mini humbucker
The originals had a nice nastiness with your distortion. Your pickups were tamer to me.
not worth the work bro
