Frequently asked questions
Which pickup is better for djent and technical metal?
The TB-10 Full Shred. Its elevated treble at 8 kHz and 5.5 kHz resonant peak deliver the articulate, cutting tone needed to define individual notes in fast, complex chord work. The controlled bass keeps chug riffs tight without mud.
Which pickup handles drop tunings better?
The TB-11 Custom Custom. Its thicker midrange and defined low-end response are specifically engineered for the heavy, punchy tone drop tunings demand. The Alnico 2 magnet also provides smooth breakup that adapts well to lower frequencies.
Are these pickups functionally different in output level?
Both are high-output designs with nearly identical DC resistance (TB-10 14.6k, TB-11 14.1k), so raw signal strength is comparable. The difference lies in EQ curve and magnet type: the TB-10 is treble-forward; the TB-11 emphasizes midrange and lows.
Do both pickups prevent feedback at high gain?
Yes. Both feature vacuum wax potting and nickel-silver bottom plates to eliminate microphonic feedback. Both also ship with four-conductor cables for split-coil wiring flexibility in custom setups.
