    Default Hagstrom Swede meets Porter Pickups

    Nice improvement in my opinion. The bridge pickup is awesome for a "rocky" lead tone. With less gain, the tone is nice and clear, and with more gain, sustain for days is possible.

    I love the neck pickup for that old school semi-dirty blues playing!

    Listening to the old clips when you first got this guitar, these pups seem to make a huge difference. Th originals sound very dark in comparison - these are clear and open sounding, but with great body.
