Talk:Mini-humbucker

A Couple Issues... edit

I'm going to correct a couple things in this article and just so everything is clear I'd like to point out exactly the issues I plan on correcting. The first being that the introductory sentence is just flat out incorrect. The mini-humbucker was not created by Gibson. It was created by Epiphone and they were making them for several years before the company was purchased by Gibson. Also, I do not believe this article is written from a neutral point of view. The introductory assertion that it "is a smaller variation of the full size PAF humbucker pickup" and then the later comparison that, "It has a thinner, less powerful sound than the full-size version", are biased and misleading statements. This implies that this pickup was created as a somehow inferior miniature "version" of a PAF humbucker. That is not at all the case. It was created by a completely different company, constructed in a completely different manner, and sounds completely different. As it stands, the style of this comparison can only be said to be of a point of view that's biased, or ignorant, or both. The whole first paragraph needs to be rewritten from a neutral point of view and if nothing else, at least credit the proper creator of the pickup.

The Rickenbacker 650 does not use a mini-humbucker. It is more like a long P90 humbucker. The output is in the 14.4K range which is well above what a min-humbucker should have.
