I gotta tell ya--i think I'm a PEARLY GATES man!!

I've tried CUSTOM5, JB, CUSTOM, FULLSHRED-----the PEARLYGATES bridge is the CLEANEST but still retains gain nicely---I LOVE IT, it's so clean!

I think I've found my fav. pickup!

Man, I can relate! I just wish I could find a 8.4 version of the PGb, then I would have my ultimate LPb pickup. Why oh why can't SD make the PGb in a consistant production wind...AS ADVERTSED!!!

Get a PG+ off of an old Lonestar strat and swap the mag for an alnico II bar.

An 8.75k PGb is very cool. ;)
 
Re: new PEARLY GATES in my LESPAUL!!!

Yeah, I HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE

I said f--- it
People rave or say they suck, but the people who rave say it's the best ever - so I tried it. Wow, nothing like 'em. It's like boutique tone, classic sound, high gain, and cut with clarity and fatness. Nothing overwound or too nasty sounding. Best of all - they are affordable!

I think they do GAIN wayyyyy better than the APH1
 
Re: new PEARLY GATES in my LESPAUL!!!

PG bridge appears to be Love/Hate. Can't see the why the fuss. Rev Billy has a righteous tone! But PG neck - rules. It should just come standard in an LP right from the shop. Really 59/PG/A2P are all good - just subtle shades. Pg is a little more snarly, A2P is fat city, and the 59 is all around.

Would Billy G play something that sucked? No way - HAVE MERCY!

STOP IT!!!

I have Alnico 2 Pros in my LP, and I love it. But you guys are making me want to try these things. Maybe I should just buy another Les Paul.

Hey - A LP just for a PG set is on my GAS list...

Dude, I'm in the same boat. :)

I NEED a clean used LP Classic in ebony. I plan on doing a set of Phat Cats on that one to go with my sunburst Standard with PG's.

Re: new PEARLY GATES in my LESPAUL!!!

I love the APH1 and use a set
but the APH1 neck with a Pearly Bridge is even better, I think it's more robust and meaner!
