Yes Duncan did do scatterwound at some point but the majority of the production now are machine wound. Are you just comfortable going with what you know and not venturing out? There are so many great scatterwound pickup makers, you’ve already gone deep into the boutique pedal world, why not go deep into the pickup world and make a bigger difference on your Guitar tone? And yes I am saying scatter wound is better than machine would and I don’t think that’s arguable haha.

Let the record show I have owned ONE tube amp in my life (I still have it) and it has 3 12AX7 preamp tubes (not 12XA7).

Quite honestly, I would much prefer one of those older shitty solid state Peavey practice amps. I would have served my purposes wonderfully and probably would have been 1/5th of the price.

By the way, 12AX7...developed in NJ! Woo hooo! In Camden

You're just, you know, not nearly as gear-savvy as you think you are, and that's kind of obvious from your posts about gear.

No I just do t have the time to make 27,000 posts about gear like you. I can crush you in gear knowledge, you don’t know me at all... you’re basing this off me asking about boost pedal recommendations because I never had to use one, and the fact that multiple people in that thread suggested multiple different things on placement, you’re really bitter over that huh. I’ve only posted on here for suggestions and this is the first time I’ve actually sat through a thread, it’s easier to ask then read through a zillion nonsense posts till I find what I’m looking for to be honest.

From Duncan's website:
"As with all of our P.A.F. style humbuckers, every Pearly Gates is wound on Seymours original Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo."

Read what I wrote “a majority are no longer scatterwound”
