Re: 59b with A2 magnet clip.

before i listen.. can you make a neck 59b2 and test it? i'd like to hear that

it definately has a hear-able change in character. it's more even. come on.. you know we all want some palm mutes ;) floyd overkill hehe, nice. great harmonics
great tone. it sounds so much fuller, awesome. i'm really starting to like A2 magnets.
:cool:

Not really increased, the pickup is just more balanced now.
Well get an APH-1 neck pu Davey..it is simply great!
:)
well, i was kinda drawn to it from the start, but then opted for the 59 instead..

next pups i'm geting my hands on is either a full shred set or a JB/59 set (again LOL - but i think i'll go out of my way and get the mags replaced by A2 ones)
 
Re: 59b with A2 magnet clip.

Actually I have the APH-1 with an A5 now, love that one more than my 59n.
More balanced, but it is just a question of finding the 59's right guitar.

Rid! You have no idea how much you just scared the crap outta me. I left the volume on my speakers cranked and forgot about it. Then I streamed the clip and left to do something real quick (takes me a while to stream clips sometimes, so I take a break :) ). Well, I come back and start putting my guitar away and........BAM! BIG HUGE A CHORD!!! And then I got frantic like a lunatic, "Who's there?! Who's playing that?! Show yourself!" And then I was like, "Hey, that sounds pretty good. ...HEY! That's Rid, no wonder it sounds good."

Hehe, anyway, I really dug the clip. The tone is so FAT, yet clear! I'm an A2 lover myself. Just simply delicious tone.

Great playing Rid.

Funny, I tried that when I had my 59b and did not like it. After many trial, I finally came to the conclusion that I prefer A5 or ceramic PUs in the bridge and A2 PUs in the neck. The A2 bidge lack too much tighness for my taste. Stangely, when I hear you or Marinblues, I love your tone... go figure. As if my ears were different when I play and when I listen to someone else.

And Davey, I also tried the 59n with an A2 and it did nothing for me. I have to say that I have yet to find a neck PU that I like. The Pearly Gates was cool, but I don't know if it worths the higher price tag.
