I have a set of Motor City Pickups Detroiters that are for sale in the classifieds. No one really seems to want to buy them. The only guitar that I have that they might seem to fit is an Ibanez AS73 335 style Semi Hollow. Would the Detroiters be a good match for that guitar? If they would, I would also upgrade all the wiring.

So, should I do it? Only thing being, that I don't want to put $300 worth of upgrades into a guitar that I have $250 into.
 
if u didnt like them in the first guitar u tried them in, then u probably wont dig them in this guitar either. If u do like the mcp's , then stick them in the ibanez as long as its a guitar u will keep the guitar because u definatly wont get your investment back if u sell it with the mcp's installed.
 
I really dig the Detroiter in my Les Paul. If that set was 50mm I'd be all over it for another Les Paul. Great pickup IMO.

I think he was talking pole spacing but your comment still rings true...it won't make a bit of difference in the sound in my experience.

on the site it mentions 50mm or 53mm legs http://motorcitypickups.com/products/detroiter.htm so i thought that was what was being referred to but yeah i agree with you as well!
