I’ve slowly come to the realization that I prefer ceramic/ferrite magnet pickups vs Alnico. I’m not a metal player (more classic rock, pop, jazz, etc), but I feel I’m more in tune with the sound of ceramic pickups. As an example - I have Lace pickups in my Strat, MFD pickups in my G&L ASAT. My other Strat has Alnico along with my Gibson. The Alnico 5 based pickups seem less punchy with less full bass than the ceramics. I also find the ceramics more immediate and “snappy”/articulate. Anyone else experience this or prefer the opposite?
