Burns Tri-Sonic Pickups

Post by Fran »

Does anyone know if these are available anywhere or is it a case of second hand ebay? I cant seem to find any googling around.

Since you're over there, try this company. A lot of people who make high-end RS copies use these guys.

Thanks.
I wont lie, i've been curious to try them ever since i found out that they was what Brian May uses, plus i think they look good. So, i was thinking of trying them out in the Lindert.
Do they handle high gain well and are they wax potted? I would presume so.

Hmm. £114 for a Brian May set (3) or £90 for a pair at WD. I cant find a price on the other webpage. Thats quite pricey, or more so than i thought.

have you tried looking for the kent armstrong version? there pretty good. i miss the sound of two trisonics wired in series, humbucker esq with single coil clarity. in some ways, i wish i still had the burns.

fuck yes!

I've actually been wanting to try those MADISON amps. They don't have good resell because apparently some people talked trash at harmony central or whatever.

Here's a tune (i think Divinity II):

Also,
this band uses Madison as well:

Like a lot of other stuff available on the WD site(bodies, Kent Armstrong p'ups, etc), Mr Ryu here at Willows Guitar actually oversees the winding of those things, and they're just as available as everything else on the site. $32 a pop at the present exchange rate.

Dat's right. You want a "front and rear", I assume?

I'll be in the area on Friday, and could shoot things out via EMS(cheapest/most dependable int'l shipping from Korea) for whatever it costs if ya wanna have a go at a pair.
