The regular super distortion is, IMO, one of the greatest humbuckers ever made. So cool to see the legacy of it continuing in new unique ways.
-
The super distortion would be really good for the baritone Gretsch that a lot of people play metal with too
-
Those Super Distor'trons were the best sounding coil split pickups I've ever heard on a video. The PAF'trons were good. Any one of those pickups costs more than the Donner guitar I just bought.
-
That sounds really good. The single notes have a muscular quality. Nice playing Phil. Thanks for a great video.
-
Tim's masterclass is def paying off, glad i just signed up. Your playing sounds amazing. loved the slap riff.
-
I have been using Super Distortions for 35 years. To me, it's my go to. Love. Nice sound on the video.
-
Multi cameras and angles! Nice. Production quality is getting really good. And sepia!
-
Good on Dimarzio for thinking outside the box. I think it sounds incredible. Definitely the SD in the bridge and PAF neck.
-
Must get sparkle jet, and put in superdistortron!!
-
A filtertron super distortion is the best idea :), a wolf in sheeps clothing, I always do some relicing to all my nickel covered pickups to make them vintage looking while they are actually high output :).
-
Phil, your playing here is great!
-
That’s totally awesome! Would love to hear it side by side with some Gretsch pickups.
-
Other than a P90, a Super Distortion and a Filtertron are my favorite pickups. So many choices....
-
This video was both a joy to watch and listen to. I think it’s one of your best, and I have seen a lot of them. To me what makes it great is 1) what you are playing is beautiful, and 2) it’s clear that you really enjoy playing with these pickups. The combination makes the video shine. Bravo!
-
That PAF-Tron(s) sounded great! Very impressive! I have just the guitar to put a set in too!! Thanks, great review!! --gary

Wow, I love the clarity between the string tones! Even with distortion you hear every string separately on full chords! I LOVE IT!
-
I don't know about the rest of the Scooby-Gang here, but I could literally watch a 3 hour live stream of you testing pickup combos as we call them out.
The folks at Somnium are genius-nerds. If I had the dough I would PAY you to do the 3 hr. livestream.. -
Just love your pickups videos. Thanks Phil!
-
Great video Philip, some great sounding pickups and lovely real world playing. The Paf'trons sound wonderfully articulate and just a bit more focused than a full humbucker. The Distor'tron was a a revelation though - awesome cleans and split sounds. The original humbucker was all over classic 70s rock so I just love that sound.
-
So fun to hear Phil play, plus cool pickups!
