A BKP set to outdo my '59 set?
« Reply #15 on: December 10, 2007, 04:13:08 AM »
I just dropped a mule in a LP Custom and it is as advertised-balanced in the eq, it adds a nice bite that my Custom had been lacking-not compressed sounding...great percussive nature..very dynamic-is equally at home doing Allmans or Tool(as a matter of fact, after some dropped d and a healthy dose of Mesa, it is as close as I have ever come to mr Adam Jones's tone-lots of clarity/headroom-strong and tight...big and bite-y!!)an all 'rounder!

i think he meant '59 as in the vintage, rather than the SD, but i may be wrong...


Yes Siree  !

I meant the the year / vintage  NOT the S.D. pickup ...  :!:

 :D


My mistake  :!: Anyway, sounds like the Mule got most people votes.
'17 PRS SE Custom 24 - stock
'07 Fender MIA Tele - The Boss set
'96 Gibson LP studio - MQn, The Mule b
'95 Epi LP classic - MQs

The mule in a custom is like a white sheet of paper yet to be written upon, its just that versatile IMO, it adapts very kindly to an amp or effect and just adds pure tone.........

Very happy with my mules  :wink:
Mules in '76 Gibson custom with maple neck.
