  • JB jr vs. Lil' 59?

    Which one has a...

    1) thicker, not too bright tone
    2) "cleans up" better in humbucker mode
    3) sounds better as a single coil(strat quack) when tapped.

    Cheers Primo.

    well i love my lil59 (bridge) for AC/DC / Zeppelin type sounds but i'm not a fan of it on the clean settings of my amp - sounds too...quacky - but not in a strat way - bit weird.

    never tried the JBjr - what kinda music would you be using it for?

        Everything from classic rock to metal, but mostly hard rock.

        Thanks Primo.
