Anyone have some comments on the mid sixties humbuckers that were slightly smaller units than the seventies replacements.
Are the differences between the 2? In tone or "Anti-Hum"?
I've never tried a Guild with these pickups and was wondering what you guys think.
Thanks for any replys

Hey Kevin, it's been discussed a lot. Most recently here. You could also find some info here. There are several other threads on the topic too if you dig a bit.

In short, the minis are brighter and the HB1s sound closer to traditional PAFs.

Thanks for the replys. I've never had the opportunity to try a Guild with these smaller units.
I'll check those other forum links.
