What can I say about these pickups? Already, we can start by saying that it is a signature of the master vai so that should give his preferred terrain: the solos. And what about that there is no problem and I rarely even saw microphone with a good sound to it both soft (in-kind) and severe. So, whatever the level of saturation, it comes out perfectly in rhythm as a solo with harmonics surprising for a neck pickup. In clean, one is a bit easier on his land but it's still very usable. Important detail, the microphone maintains its character even serious split which allows for the illusion of a simple split (alone or in parallel to a simple middle). In short, the ideal microphone lead but I think the chopper in the heats (DiMarzio always) has to do it too because he seems to be more versatile, with a little less output level, the same type of character and above the sound of a real double (and all that goes with it) with the simple nia. I take this opportunity to clarify that it is mounted on a Vigier Excalibur Original. A test then.
