I just played both my amps and both my guitars and after playing my jackson, which sounds magnificent mind you and its such a cheap guitar, i picked up my new gibson es137custom with 57classics and plugged it in. Now granted the jackson is quite a lighter guitar, and for some of the cleans i was playing it through the jacksons single coils (some was bridge JB though), but when i plugged in the gibson on all the clean stuff it was really woofy in the neck position. The bridge position was actually pretty shrill and not too pleasant on the ears. Although the neck pickup seems good for some thick jazzy cleans, i think its too thick, and im sure there are better duncans out there that arent woofy but do cleans and jazzy leads a lot better than the 57 classic.
What does anyone else think about that? Do you find the same thing with stock gibson pickups?
