Miracle man -Vs- Painkiller

[Antag]

I actually have a question concerning the output.  I have a MM in my SG and it is kind of "medium hot". Both the Seymour Duncan JB on my baritone (which obviously uses very heavy strings) and EMG81 on my Eclipse noticably drive the preamps on my amps more than the MM.

I'm not surprised about the EMG but the JB?? Is something maybe wrong with my MM?

MM should wipe the floor with the JB for output.  A correctly installed Miracle Man isn't "medium" anything :twisted:

IMO the MM is nearly (but not quite) in 9v EMG81 territory for output.  Either way, it's an EMG-killer for tone :)

(FWIW, I have a MM in an FV with a pitched neck & the difference in angle between pickup & strings has a neglibible effect - certainly none on output when compared to my MM LP & Warmoths)

Everyone always says the MM's aren't very versatile.... but I seem to be able to get loads of sounds out of them  :?

I even use them for Jazz  :lol:
