Sonic evaluation: I was very suprised when I fired this pup up. I used a Traynor YCV50, Boogie theile 1/12 ext cab ,Barber Direct Drive, Ibanez TS-10 and Meistersinger Chorus. When I first started I had to re-equalize my amp. But what tone, big, fat ,clear. I compaired it to my Les Paul loaded with Duncans (59 neck JB bridge) This pup smoked . The Duncans sounded mushy ( any I have used them for 15 years). Clear or distorted , Guitar to amp or with various pedals,
any thing I played sounded great.

For which styles and positions is this pickup (un)suitable: This pup works for all styles . One of the best bridge pups I have found

Comments: I have played for over 34 years . I have many great guitars . I bought this to improve my Squier Esprit and boy what a change . You can only buy this on ebay but for 35.00 its the best deal money can buy. Only negative is the spects are not posted on the ebay ad, but if you ask the seller a question he will respond very quickly. I was going to replace my Pauls pups with some high priced scatterwound but for the price and quality I can buy several different models of these (to try out) and still save money. Who would have known that Korean pups could be this good . Look don't take my word for it go and try one today.
