I wasn't happy with the 498's in my LP custom, and being a P90 man I swapped em for a set of Kent Armstrong HB sized P90's, they're the 14k version.They were a definate improvement on the HB's I took out, but there's still room for improvement.
THey sound nice n crunchy, but I could do with a phatter bassier sound, the KA's sound a bit thin and crunchy.I'm looking for a warmer phatter bassier sound.Maybe the KA's would sound better in a different guitar, but in the custom they sound too trebley/upper middy and not warm and phat enough.The SD custom P90 in my hamer sound smuch better, as do the gibson P100's in my LP special.
What would teh MQ's sound like in comparison??Are they wramer phatter and bassier??Anyone tried em in a les paul custom??
Oh and I'm a bareknuckle virgin!!
