Would you consider comparing the original Duncan Custom to the 59 Custom Hybrid?
Great vid as always, thanks 🙏🏻

[@diarrhea_splatter]

I'm sure it's coming. This dude has every pickup under the sun. Definitely would love to hear your suggestion 👍

[@WillMoon]

Under really high gain the DiMarzio has a buzz to it that and it’s too scooped. SD is the winner IMO.

[@kilianruvalcaba6904]

definitely seymour duncan custom 5 is better for that I need, but depends that somebody needs, both are great pickups
conclusion:
sd custom 5 is warm
dimarzio x2n is little bit more cold than sd custom 5
excellent video like always mike, greetings and thanks for keep making this video comparisons
