Anyone compare the Livewire Classic II humbuckers to the Livewire Mustains? Just curious, because SD says the LWMust is similar to a Jazz neck/JB bridge combo, which would tend to be good for classic rock. The LWCHII are obviously recommended for that.
 
Re: Livewire Mustaine Vs. LWCHII

The Mustaine Livewires are very rich and clear in a metal context, but probably will be far too hot for classic rock. If you look at the sound sample gallery, you'll notice that they have sound samples of the Dimebucker clean, and that is aggressive, and of the Mustaine neck, but not of the bridge. Likewise for the Blackouts for Metal.

The Classic IIs are probably well suited for classic rock, they're probably very clean and clear. Some black metal players use them in the neck to complement the Blackouts Bridge.
