Frequently asked questions
Can I use these pickups together in the same guitar?
Not in the same position—the Slash 3.0 is a bridge humbucker and the Lari Basilio Tele Neck is a single-coil neck pickup designed for Telecasters. They serve different instruments and positions.
Which pickup has higher output?
The Slash 3.0 Bridge Humbucker is high-output with an aggressive, responsive character. The Lari Basilio Tele Neck is moderate-output, designed for articulate definition rather than raw power.
Are these pickups good for genres outside hard rock and metal?
