I was wondering if anybody knew what stock pickup was used on an early 80's LDG. And also any opinions on what pickup sounds best in these guitars. I can't seem to find out what pickup I have on mine. I have done a search but can't come up with anything.
Thanks in advance
Dan

Dan,
Yes, the 705 sounds much different than the Sho~Bud pickup. First of all, the 705 does not hum. It's a very quiet, mellow pickup. It also has more of a grainy, kind of condensed (less string separation) sort of sound (Jimmy Day). Which is great for certain applications. The Sho~Bud pickup is more lively (Lloyd Green) but, depending on the surrounding environment, it hums. I like them both, but if I had to choose one, I'd go with the Sho~Bud, hum and all.
