Frequently asked questions
What is the actual tonal difference between these two pickups?
Both use identical Alnico II magnets, DC resistance specs (13.8K neck / 13.5K bridge), and Gauss ratings (250 neck / 300 bridge). The only difference is pole-piece spacing; tonal character is warm, articulate, and balanced on both.
Which pickup set works with a Floyd Rose tremolo?
The Revelation-F features Floyd-spaced pole pieces for proper alignment on floating tremolo systems. The standard Revelation is voiced for non-tremolo or conventional tremolo guitars.
Do both include electronics and wiring?
Yes—both sets ship with 500K volume and tone potentiometers, stereo output jack, mounting hardware, and solderless quick-connect cables. No additional components needed for either installation.
Are these suitable for metal or high-gain genres?
Both are moderate-output passive designs best suited to blues, rock, and clean tones. The Revelation-F is noted as acceptable for high-gain applications, but neither is voiced specifically for metal or djent styles.
