Analyzed some Eastwood Clone Phase IV bridge pickups that I just replaced with my first Univox Clone test. Eastwood pickups were okay, been playing them for about 2 months now, just didn’t have the feel of the vintage pickups. Not bad, just not univox tone. My analysis confirmed it. The resonant peak is lower at 2.7kHz loaded vs the 2.99-3.13kHz range of the Vintage pickups I tested. Not sure what’s inside it yet, but I’ll get to it eventually. Measured specs. DC 8.4kHz, Inductance 5.07H, Measured Capacitance 124pF.

The installed first test Univox clones are a beast. I definitely have that feel. The HM2 sounds a lot more brighter. My waxpotting is a success, I’m able to drive the HM-2 a bit louder. Which reminds me. I’ll inspect some HM2 EQ analysis and design a pickup that would go great with it. I think HM2Cult on youtube does great analysis of that pedals and a ton of clones. Can see if I can cater a pickup’s resonant peak to match the eq.
