All user reviews of 4/5 for the Gibson 500T

I have been using the 2-3years now on a Gibson Explorer 76 '.
Well, it's a really good microphone: an output level and above an amazing character! This microphone is for rock, mtal, etc ... but beware, I found that the force really too low taient slobbering my taste and I decided to replace it with a tone zone!
So 7 to its low and clear sound better than average! (even on a good light)
but with a good mic to split, dirty fe!

I used it for 3 or 4 years on my Epiphone Les Paul Standard.
The microphone is very powerful, and super charged with mediums.
The grain is not so tight as that, even if it's still modern, but it is still very much distortion. He cruncher stronger amps already saturated.
Lack of treble for my taste, I find it very loaded midrange, but there are still rather sharp.

I'm tired, it is not really suitable for my use (crunches), it must be better in distos. But he has a well marked, not as the 498T I just bought that is more boilerplate.

Its grain airier than the 498T gives it a slightly vintage, but the power makes her think of a modern sound.
