Hey all.
First gig last night with the Aftermath bridge in my WezV Vociferator multiscale baritone.
Previously I'd been using a black dog in the bridge, and more recently a miracle man.
First thing: OH MY GOD! This pickup is totally totally unforgiving! Brilliant! Except now I need to practise a lot more... but hey this is a good thing.
There is a lot less bass compared with the miracle man, and I'm also running less bass on the amp and taking out the low low frequencies with an MXR 10-band EQ in the loop of my 5150-II. The result in the band context is a much, much more coherent and articulate sound. I am so happy with the sound of this pickup, too - it's super aggressive in the mids, which I run high on the amp and boost a little too in the loop. Even with very low gain on the amp, and hence a really quite open sound, the tone is pretty crushing.
There's a review of the gig here:

PS clips may follow in due course, depending on lots of factors, including whether I have any time to put any up :)
