YT: Entwistle HDN demo and short review (DI's, too)

[Mattayus]

If nobody's heard of them before, Entwistle Pickups are a UK budget brand. I steered clear of them for years due to their stupidly cheap prices, but being practically harassed by a few people to try them out, I did, and they weren't wrong in their description of them. Very good for the money, would definitely recommend, particularly this model.



And here's a link to a short review and the DI tracks for you to hear them through your own rigs

You got me interested in them.
I'm close to stage when I'll start building my 1st guitar and I'm thinking to put these in.

 

[Mattayus]

They're a great cheap option. I guess you'd have to feel the guitar out first and see what would suit it
If it's a chunky guitar they would be perfect, but I wouldn't dream of putting them in something like an RG. They'd be way too thin.

Well, sounds you provided didn't sounded muddy(not low-mid heavy) and that's my preference, so they sound pretty much perfect for what I'm intended to build.

Yeah man, very tight, no boom/mud at all
