Antiquity all the way, these things are such great classic sounding pickups.

Hi nikopapp,

Welcome to the forum, and another antiquity fan here (I've used the Ant I bridge PU, buckers and P90s - all excellent). Just a note, however, that posting a link straight up may come across as spam and also the link shows the same price as most dealers on ebay.

Any experience comparing the fralin stock vs antiquity? And if so, antiquity I or II? I'm curious myself, as I have used a stock fralin before, but not either antiquity in the neck.

Oren, perhaps give us an idea of what sound you are looking for, why you're dissatisfied with the stock pickup.

Cheers,
Trevor
