Make that twice! :p

Actually, the duncan hot rails is hotter than a lot of full sized buckers, and is a great p/u for rockin' out. DiMarzio, Bill Lawrence, and Joe Barden all make excelent single coil sized humbuckers that sound great. And oh yeah, these are "TRUE DOUBLE HUMBUCKERS"...two coils reverse wound from each other and quite as could be.

This is one case where size really doesn't matter. :D
