All user reviews of 4/5 for the Seymour Duncan APH-1B Alnico II Pro HB Bridge

I installed it on a Gibson Trad 60s who was fitted with classic 57 Uncovered (without the cover metal) the result is astonishing my Gibson has found more potato is fit in nicely as it should, it's fat was beautiful roundness of the bass can be good too say some, suddenly it is not precise mode lead on the other hand this is not a DiMarzio ... Slash fans will be thrilled that sounds really good, the rhythm section (You Could Be Mine, live and let die ...) go really well at least better than my classic 57 Uncovered, those who seek it's hard bluesy rock with the hot side and the small bump in the middle with good dynamics will be cons delighted by what he can be criticized for its too typed Slash who may lack originality with time

I had mounted it there's four years in acute position on my Epiphone Les Paul, 59 coupled to a home in Duncan also serious.
I had not tried many models before buying the ones, and had no experience, I just wanted a little boost my guitar, which the microphones were standard, and are not always terrible. I was very pleased with the outcome, and value for money is great.

It offers micro cleans not terrible, crunches honest, saturated and very friendly. In retrospect, I find it a bit bland and neutral, lacking fishing Dimarzio face that I like now. The Duncans have I think in general a little difficult to give a good record when we decrease the volume knob. This mic also lack body.

I do not regret this choice in retrospect, and this hummbucker is a good mic, but I rather orienterais to a Dimarzio Tone Zone aujourd'ui.

Hello everyone,

I just get two Alnicio Pro II on my cort (type lespaul) at an easel and a handle, a week ago.
When compared to microphones of origin, no photo, it's frankly better I especially liked the sound and fishing side of the microphone handle. A big good sound, fisherwoman, powerful, perfectly blending the highs and lows. In a word, amazing! By side against the bridge, I am disappointed ... No "fishing", "aggression" between the two microphones is obvious ... Much less presence in pickup, even if the sound is correct. The difference is very obvious in his clear. An incredible fishing neck pickup and sound "pussy" in terms of power to the bridge pickup. Yet I always played with the microphones quasiement easels, but now I think having to change of opinion ...

I have not tried much before, except for micro origins of cort, gibson, epiphone, and layers.

Quality / price is correct.

A remake, so no doubt for the neck pickup, I wonder why I have not done before. As against the bridge, it is less obvious!

I use a pair Alnico II on my epiphone G400 for several months (see notice G400).
I finally found the sound I was looking for moultes years!

They are typed vintage microphones, but delivered through a good amp (tube) sounds good pêchus. Playing in a record blues / rock / heavy rock, they had two cover all my needs sound.

Micro Bridge (APH1B) is in my opinion not as good as his friend's sleeve. it is still very effective for rhythmic rock / heavy rock punchy well because it is a bit more "dry" and biting the Neck version. It retains the same character a vintage with a very special grain. I do not use hardly any solo, but for example for the communication breakdown solo Zeppelin, the sound of the album and that of the Alnico II bridge are very close.
It is not suitable for use metal. As his colleague the handle could do the trick of solo passages, it is really too much rock / vintage palm-to mutate like crazy .

In the end, it is a good microphone coupled with his buddy APH1N, you must love this grain vintage and saturate the amplifier more than micro, but definitely, I love!
