The time has come, I need to get two new pickups for the Epi. The neck has bowed and I am going to take it for a fixing, so it's time to get them to drop something good in there.

I want something PAF ish in tone.

What will be my best options? I'm looking at not spending a lot on this, as it isn't my main guitar.

If anyone has a) suggestions b) examples for purchase, let me knwo

Cheers PB.

57 Classic pups seem to be the perfect fit for a Dot.

i believe TMG has these on his ES333?

maybe Ash and Darcy may have some suggestions?

57 classics were the 1st thing that jumped to my mind too - they are what will be going in mine if I can ever decide between buying a gibbo or just pimping the epi dot.

They are probably ruled out by "I'm looking at not spending a lot on this" though.

any opinions about the KA/SKY PAFS?

they are reasonably priced..

how about any SD offerings?

I like your Epi Dot mate. I like it a lot. Ash has a good idea of what fits the 335 tone-wise. Just PM him.

Sky pickups are not bad for the price. They lack a little of the mojo of their more expensive counterparts, but they are less than half the price. I was impressed with the humbucker sized P90 they do.
