What is the hand feeling?
Do you like them? Thoughts on how the compare to original?
I think I’ll just stay on this side of the wall.
Yikes! Good thing the sign is in English.
My thoughts are based off our West Coast GTG this past July.
There were several Tbirds from different years.
I'll break it down like this.
Just one man's opinion here.
More then what you're asking for.
I'm sure others will chime in.
I'm no expert here.
In this order are my favs.
Lulls, absolutely top of the heap, for me.
V might disagree with me, idk.
I thought the Lulls had everything you could imagine from grind to smooth.
Very articulate and powerful sounding, a real kick in the pants.
To me, made the originals sound weak. I don't mean that in a bad way.
Just that i've never heard any TBird pick up sound like that before.
SideWinders, very close second.
ThunderBuckers, To me they are a smoother sounding pick up, a lot like The Lollars, but with a bit more clarity.
Originals, they are in a league of their own.
Only way i could describe it is.....
For the same reason people love the early 60's Pbasses.
And it's no wonder a 60's Tbird sounds like a 60's Pbass and then some.
Of course YMMV based off strings, amp, playing technique.
It's been a while since i got sent to the corner of the room.
Might happen cause of my descriptions here.
Inquiring minds may not want to know.

Donnie must be right, you been drinking?
Whew! I thought it was me. And I just had an eye exam(had 2).
I told you it is a Hindu festival. Something about Rahm dispatching a ten headed demon. Of course, all I cared about was it wasn’t a dry holiday.
I was able to read it just fine.

I learned from TV that sentries are pretty easy to deal with...
