Frequently asked questions
What's the main difference between these two pickups?
The Reverse Zebra uses standard humbucker spacing with a 17.6k DC resistance, while the White is Trembucker-spaced (Floyd Rose-compatible) with a higher 19.1k DC resistance. This affects both physical fit and tonal character—the Reverse Zebra is tighter and more articulate, while the White emphasizes sustain and warmth.
Which one should I buy if I have a Floyd Rose bridge?
Only the White pickup will fit properly, as it features Trembucker spacing designed for Floyd Rose bridges. The Reverse Zebra uses standard spacing and will not align correctly with Floyd Rose pickups.
Are they both suitable for metal and drop tunings?
Yes, both are high-output bridge humbuckers designed for metal and hard rock across standard and drop tunings. The Reverse Zebra emphasizes note separation and articulation, while the White prioritizes sustain and warmth at high gain.
Do both support coil-tapping and switching?
Yes, both feature four-conductor wiring that allows for flexible coil-tapping, split-coil schemes, and series/parallel switching in compatible guitar electronics.
