Best pickups for Grunge and Pop Punk.
I swapped the stock pickups on my guitars with these pickups because I wanted pickups that get rid of the 60 cycle hum but at the same time have the raspiness of hot single-coil pickups. The thing I love about Zexcoils is that they get rid of the hum, but instead of sounding like humbuckers, they sound exactly like true hot single-coil pickups. Their raspy hot single-coil like tone works really great for my needs. I have never been fond of humbuckers, all humbuckers have too much low-mids and sound really dark for my tastes, but these pickups despite technically being humbuckers sound nothing like humbuckers. Just like true hot single-coil pickups, they have just the perfect amount of growl and rasp for Grunge and Pop Punk guitar tones. If you ever need a set of pickups that completely preserve your single-coil tones but get rid of the annoying 60 cycle hum then get these puppies, and unlike many active solutions out there these puppies are passive.
