The Deep Six has thrown away the rule book and follows my Airship Trooper in using a seldom used custom wire grade … but goes further still, and uses one of the most under rated and ignored types of alnico magnet … alnico 6.
Alnico 6 has a power level somewhere between alnico 5 and ceramic … not as ‘chainsaw rude’ as alnico 8, or as grainy and ‘metal’ as ceramic … warm with a big dose of clarity and a tight bass … but without alnico 5’s mid scooping … if you like a full range of frequencies with a comfortable amount of ‘go’ on tap – while still keeping that PAF thing
Then Deep Six it!
Perfect for classic rock, blues, and even hard rock and even metal … possibly my most versatile pickup.
