I mount these microphones 2 weeks ago on the Les Paul Custom Custom Shop. These 57 Classic 57 Classic and more come to replace my old 490R/498T. The silent problem that I found these pickups too modern, modern possdant dj amp "High Gain" (VHT Pitbull 100 Watts). Silent sound a bit messy, mushy and over-saturated.

With these pickups in neck and Classic 57 Classic 57 + at the bridge ... Ouuuu what happiness! Saw my guitar! It is much more singing than before, a little also prcise. It's really extraordinary. The sound suits me 100 times better.
Concrtement, I have slightly less bass (but the LP-based does not really dpourvue) a good dose of medium, less aggressive treble which combined to give powerful and aggressive VHT a set unstoppable, all s'quilibrant perfectly. The sound is a little less saturated than before, but much more singing, more prcis, much better, even for the big fat mtal families.

Neck pickup: beautiful, beautiful property acute round, lots of bass, bluesy wish!
Micro Bridge: Extraordinary claret in his clear, not shrill treble, a warm, round, and his is the saturated fte! Mtal no problem, do not talk about rock ... ACDC just me alone!
The runis 2: a sound between the two with the precision of the bridge and round the neck pickup which gives a sound ... Intermdiaire! lol

I do not really regret my purchase, it sounds the fire god. I always found the 490R/498T too this, too cel ... I do not compensate for the amplifier to realize that there was really nothing, silent micro grain in question or that I liked moderately. Now ... Fantastic. A true sound of Gibson families as I hear on my records prfrs.

A lightweight regret: no split possible! (Micros in 2-wire only)

The price? The quality of our answer ... I 140 and 150 euros (sleeping hood) it's expensive but worth the ... Widely.
