Abraxas set in Les Paul (now with clean clips added)
« on: November 29, 2009, 10:21:33 PM »
These are such under-rated pickups and they do 100% what I've always wanted from a humbucker set with a PAF tonality.  So, here's some examples of what they're all about...

Nice sound and all, but I think we've been cheated out of some neck pickup tone! The thread title says "Abraxas SET" not Abraxas bridge. Start playing some solos for us right away to make up for that mistake.

...uhm... please?
