Frequently asked questions
Can these pickups be used together in the same guitar?
Yes—the Antiquity is a neck-position pickup and the Lari Basilio is a bridge-position pickup, so they are designed for different slots and can be paired in the same instrument.
Which pickup is better for metal or rock?
The Lari Basilio Bridge is far better suited for metal and rock with its 9.22k high-output design and aggressive sustain. The Antiquity Jazz Model is not ideal for these genres due to its warm, vintage voicing and lower output.
What is the main tonal difference between these pickups?
The Antiquity prioritizes warm, woody midrange with natural compression and smooth response, while the Lari Basilio emphasizes bright, responsive top end with strong midrange presence and sustained aggression. The Antiquity is vintage-focused; the Lari Basilio is modern and articulate.
Are both pickups handmade?
Yes, both are individually handcrafted in Santa Barbara, California using Seymour Duncan's exacting standards, ensuring premium construction quality.
