Stupid questions

**Vikunt** · 03-16-2009, 06:35 AM

Hey guys I've been responsible for a couple of stupid questions lately

. To be honest I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to equipment.In the past i generally have just played anything with 6 strings and assumed the more you pay the better the sound and only popped my EBMM cherry last week. I have recently gotten really interested in learning about ebmm gear and mods and I've found the EBMM community really helpfull and friendly

so I'll probs ask a few more stupid questions before I know what I'm talking about, hope this isn't a stupid question as well but what are the stock pickups in a sub1? Do EB make them or are they outsourced from a pickup company like Seymour Duncan or dimarzio?

The SUB pickups are not Di Marzio : they were designed by MusicMan and produced in Asia. They are not available alone : if you want one, you just have to buy a SUB ...

I thought the subs were suppose to be all America Made? Or it just the electronics that are Chinese?

The pickups in the SUB are marvelous.

Yeah the one in it is pretty good but there's only one and it's in the bridge so it's kind of lacking in crunchyness, if I can make that word up. I would chuck in a new hummer @ the neck but I really like the scratch plate and don't want to cut into it.
