After listening to all the clips until my head was spinning I think I might give the Abraxas a go. For my more pop/alt indie stuff I tend to use the middle position and neck more for cleaner tones, so the bridge could be used when I need a more rock voice. I think the 14k at the bridge was putting me off the pickup a bit, but now its been pointed out that it uses a different gauge wire that makes much more sense. It kind of makes sense that if you have several guitars that you should give yourself as many tonal options as you can.
One question for HTH Amps though, as you've clearly spent a bit of time using these pickups, so you seem like a good person to ask. How do you rate the clean sounds from these pickups?
