Hi all!
We had out first gig in weeks and I used the LP. My buddy in the audience said I had more clarity than before and a nice beefy LP tone...nice, pounding chunk! And that is with the stock BB Pros. I think I really like PAF style pickups.....deep lows......natural, modest mids, and sweet highs.
I love the clarity.....I am thinking though I could get similar tone with the C-5 but a bit more output and push. Also, I think leads would sing a little more with the C-5. I have that p'up in a Korean Dean and leads are so sweet. I can see where it would take the LP/BBPro tone to the next level. I may not have to look at more expensive Fillmores and such. The C-5 is so smooth even in the Dean.
I really like the BB Pro, but I wish I could get a pickup that has similar EQ but maybe better lead ontes with richer ands thicker harmonics. That is what I seem to get from the C-5 in my Dean.
Do you guys have an idea how the C-5 balances with the Burstbucker Pro neck? Mostly for neck leads and combining the bridge and neck for clean. I think the 59 neck is a little muddy.....but I love the BB pro neck. PGn?
If I can only get up the nerve to install in the LP without screwing
something up. I think I'll have to open up the LP and trace the breidge p'up wires to ensure I remove the correct wires.
Honestly.....I can get the BB Pro and C-5 fairly close at times, but the lead of the C-5 is so smooth and gorgeous...better harmonics.
Maybe I'll just see what I can do and install the C-5 inthe bridge this week. Any thoughs on a neck to balance well for articulate leads and good cleans combined with the C-5?
Thanks!!!!
