I just a got a Fernandes Dragonfly Electric Guitar and it has 2 single coil pickups and 1 humbucker... I wanted to know which Humbucker should i get because i want more power and distortion in the sound...i want to play like iron maiden......the single coils and the humbucker are made by Fernandes and are covered...

That alone isn't going to prevent you from playing like Iron Maiden...

I don't know what the output of the Fernandes pickups is, but from the sound of it, what you are looking for are very high output pickups. My suggestion would be to go for something like the SD Distortion Trembucker and something like the SD Li'l Screamin' Demon to replace the single coils. However, with the latter, you'll lose the tradtional single coil sound...

Take a look at SD's spec sheet: from : localhost/to get an idea of the outputs of the individual pickups.

Hope that helps!

Does any one know what pickups does ADRIAN SMITH of IRON MAIDEN use in his Fender Fat Strat and i just wanna replace the HUMBUCKER help me what pickups should i replace the fernandez Humbucker isnt as loud and there is no distortion so help me plz

To my ears it sounds as if he is using a Distortion....maybe JB. The bridge pup has a lot of grind and output. The neck and middle sound like a SSL1.

I thought maiden used hot rails for the single coils.

Dave Murray does, but Jannick uses JBjrs, Adrian uses some SSH strats.
