    Micro Alnico II by Gibson, the difference with the Classic 57 is that the normal model "Plus" has more winding, we find this microphone on a lot of bridge Les Paul Traditional, it has a very vintage and made very rock / bluesy side there is the limitation in the drive, or it will seek to push its limits .... it is very musical and smooth at the same time and at the same time it knows to show resentment .... it releases a lot of bass and top middle, it is a micro wax potted it has a side that can be suppressed too deaf to see some good but .... otherwise also tested for 57 + Classic uncovered (without metal cover) I find the model uncovered much drier and returned it ... except for the big m…

    How long have you use it?
    I use it since May 12, 2005, I mounted one hour (to see on my site).
    - What is so special that you like most and least?
    When I bought it, I wondered how my SG was still sound better, was it possible?

    Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    I did not have the 498T in my SG standard, and I wanted to go to the vintage sound

    I paid € 139 VPC, of ​​course I'm happy, but it is really expensive!
    With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    Yes, a hundred times yes .. even if it's expensive!
