I use a pair Alnico II on my epiphone G400 for several months (see notice G400).
I finally found the sound I was looking for moultes years!

They are typed vintage microphones, but delivered through a good amp (tube) sounds good pêchus. Playing in a record blues / rock / heavy rock, they had two cover all my needs sound.

Micro Bridge (APH1B) is in my opinion not as good as his friend's sleeve. it is still very effective for rhythmic rock / heavy rock punchy well because it is a bit more "dry" and biting the Neck version. It retains the same character a vintage with a very special grain. I do not use hardly any solo, but for example for the communication breakdown solo Zeppelin, the sound of the album and that of the Alnico II bridge are very close.
It is not suitable for use metal. As his colleague the handle could do the trick of solo passages, it is really too much rock / vintage palm-to mutate like crazy ;-).

In the end, it is a good microphone coupled with his buddy APH1N, you must love this grain vintage and saturate the amplifier more than micro, but definitely, I love!
