I love roughcast A3 in the neck pickup. I have it in a set of Antiquitys in one of my PRS guitars and the clean tones are superb.
I like it in the bridge pickup too but generally prefer A2, A4 or A5 for the British Blues tones I favor.
I don't use high gain amps though. Blackface Fenders or an AC30.
A3 is a weaker magnet than A2, A4 or A5 and seems to give a pickup a clarity the others don't.

It does sound really good (I am not familiar with him at all), and I'd like to hear more diverse demos of it as well.Administrator of the SDUGF

Doesn't the Custom shop make something called an Eclair? I seem to recall it having an A3.
My only experience with A3's is in single coil in the neck and bridge positions of my Squire Strat. I love 'em for a serious vintage tone. They sound very unique in the notch positions because I have an A5 middle. Very responsive to volume and tone knobs.
