Are these true humbuckers? I ask because I have found single coils in humbucker bodys on cheaper pickups?

It's hard to say without taking them apart. The covers are soldered so your guess is as good as mine. All I do know is they were described as high-out and weren't. The bridge pup was 4 ohms less than advertised

Yes, but I upgraded the pickups to Seymour Duncan SPB-3s and put some Fender Medium/Light flat wound strings on it. The pickups it comes with are cheap with weak output, but do work. Your fingertips will thank you for getting flat wound strings. The upgrades cost me about $90 and I installed them myself, so for less than $200 I now have what I consider to be quite a nice Bass guitar. The Chinese made solid wood body and neck are fine, it is the electronics and strings that are cheap quality.

I've used rocksmith with single coil strats only. But it should be less noisy since they are humbucker pickups. It should be perfectly fine. Rocksmith is not a highend interface so you can probably attach anything to it

I have a ssl-5 at the bridge. It rocks! I have fender noiseless in the middle and neck position. Your best bet is to call seymour Duncan , they are very helpful with every question I have ever asked them. That is one of the main reasons I keep dealing with there products. Plus the are top of the line in my opinion, I have seymour Duncan pickups in all three of my strats.

I'm really not sure, I used them on a custom build. They are four wire which allows for many wiring options. I wired them with another single coil pickup and a five way selector, tone, and volume. As far as sound, they are pretty hot! I really like em.

Its a cosmetic enhancement om humbucking pickups. On jazz basses with single coil pickups it completes the shielding, if you have shielded underneath the pickups.

These pick ups are humbuckers & are typically larger than single coil pick ups. Some enlarging of the mounting hole would have to be done. As far the difference between these pick ups & the vintage alnico I really can't say. More info on the other pick ups is needed.

I put them on an Ibanez 12 string. Dont know if they will fit any other but, thet sure do brighten up the guitar. If that is what you are looking for they are worth the investment.

It is humbucker.The humbucker pickup is literally two single coils, wrapped together out of phase.

Yes, that is the problem. They work best with t-coil so you may only be able to use that one side for quality sound.The side without a t-coil will have a poor quality sound in comparison.

I don't remember if they have that extra wire for a coil tap, because I just want the humbucker for a fat tone and I didn't pay attention on coil taping wiring and wire, it should has an extra wire for that, also depends on the wiring and off course you must have a push on potentiometer (pot), there're so many wiring diagrams on the internet for any combination and styles, just google it

This perfect for a beginner. As I have learned about the pick-ups. Get Fender Squier instead...I just picked one up for $30 put new strings and tuned it up. It Sound like new $300 guitar...xcheck out craigslist in your area. be surprise on the deals U find...action should be 4/64th on high and low strings. check the videos on youtube...

I have 2 in my truck on a 2000 watt Brutus an it rocks! I would imagine that they would sound good with any decent 1600 watt D-Class mono amp ... Pionner has one .. Or just search 1600 D-Class mono and check the reviews

I would definitely call Grover or Gibson and get an exact part number. Bought them for my acoustic without doing my research and now my tuners are at a slight angle to the headstock because of different screw placements. It actually looks kind of neat imo, but not what I was originally expecting

They are regular humbuckers. They fit into the normal humbucker cavity. They mount to the humbuckers mounts.

Dear Chris,From what I can tell these appear to be passive pickups. If you look at the back there isn't a spot for the battery pack required for active pickups. I hope this helps!WWBW
