Axis Sport HSS Replacement Pickup Set
I hate to ask this but my research comes up so muddled and confused I thought I’d try this route. I have an older Axis Sport that came to me wired as a Tele. I have a newer dual humbucker Axis SS that is teh first guitar that I have had no desire to change anything on and that makes me happy. 99.9% of the time I use either humbucker alone (pos 1?) and the mid/split hum (pos 2?) and that covers all my needs. All of my live presets are built around those and sound great. I had a couple new pickguards made and want to load the HSS version with something as close to the original MM pickups, or my current ASS bridge pickup and close to original mid and neck pickups. Since I can’t buy MM pickups what would you suggest for my needs? I have read the AT-1 is close as a humbucker, the Area model X, Y or Z, True Velvet, etc for the single coil slots. But I am lost. Again looking to replicate what was original or what I a currently using so that these two guitars are easily interchangeable live. I have watches Dr. Kev’s video on wiring options for output balance so that could be helpful for final wiring once a set is selected.
Thank you
