Best value:
Correct
Used for 8 years on an Ibanez RG270 well as custom bridge pickup and neck pickup in this micro level offers a huge output. This helps to tease all styles of metal with no problem. It is very suitable for a micro solos.
Most:
- Can effectively saturate tube amps,
- Very good sustain,
- Color adapted to the metal,
- Grain nice, very angry,
- Micro excellent also for the shred stick (see Mr. Romeo)
- Very little hum.
The -:
- No clear sound (it saturates and it is not pretty)
- Significant difference in level with the other microphones so difficult to set a coherent
- Captures all the ambient noise at high volume, we can sing in !
- Not very accurate (but not a defect ...)
I tested many models of microphones (DM, SD, EMG, ...)
Value right no more.
With the experience I would do this choice for the guitar in question. On the biggest gear I use at the moment of EMG (81-85) in assets and I eye on the SP-Custom in liabilities.
I put 10 but only for metal solos, you know why we buy it.
