I never had a chance to try the new pups anywhere except at home, so, no high volume, they sounded very 'clear' and balanced at this volume. I had the Rio grande set in my guitar for around 2 years, and as we all know, new pickups can be a bit of an anxious time.
Anyway, gig on Friday, pretty nervous, the Stormie's were awesome, I have to say, they have a 'similar' character as the Rios, but, much clearer sounding, the bass is very well balanced, and the treble, while slightly more pronounced than the rio is very sweet, I only had to make a little adjustment to the amp. They worked brilliantly with my pedals, and, because they sounded so good, I played better, hence, a great gig.
I am VERY happy. All I need to do now, is work on the pickup height, at the moment, the neck is slightly louder than the bridge, I will enjoy experimenting.
