Title: VH2 Users Question
Post by: Bird on November 16, 2006, 02:49:30 PM
How do you like the VH2 for clean sounds? Does it sound a bit sterile or is it a warm sound :?:  There are some good clips but everybody's gear and playing is different. Thanks

The VHII is quite a warm pickup when run completely clean-it's a big fav with jazz players.

Well that answers that  :)  Read that about the VH2 being a good jazz pickup in another post. I've been playing more jazz  since my teacher is a jazz guy, so the VH2 should fit the bill.

I was originally going to go with Crawlers or Mules but decided at the last minute to go with VH2. They've got a lot of definition and they seem to really sing. I'll definitely post something about them once they're installed.  :evil:
