ooh - lots of conflicting views here.......
I think that as wonderful as the Crawler is - it may not seem all that bright in a Les Paul - more of a smooth kind of sound.

I just fitted some VH2s to a Les Paul today and it was exactly what Mikey is describing
Hotter PAF with more brightness .

I would say that the VH2 seems to have a bit more of everything
The overwind tends to make it fat in the mids , but the offset between the two coils (slightly different number of turns of wire on each coil) opens up the top end response (and and to some extent also the bottom) .
A Les Paul will have plenty of low end and low mid anyway.

Great sound!
