Aha I like it.  Sounds good enough for me clean!  Way to make it harder to decide on which hi gain pickup I want!

I did back off the sliders a lot to get it clean. If the levels are nearish to 0db then it breaks up. This isn't supposed to be a clean pickup. Apparently French Jazz players like the Warpig. I read that on here sometime ago. So it's worth bearing in mind. The new Cold Sweats are supposed to be good at both too.

Well from what I've heard it's based on what John Sykes used. There are some posts under the pick ups section about it. It does sound well tasty!

Like your little solo on that one. These pickups aren't supposed to do this stuff and yeah, my Reverend does it a whole lot better. It's a lot of fun pushing pickups to the limits of their abillity.

Thanks lads :)  It only took about 10 takes to get it! I dunno what it is, but when you play without it recording you can do it. Press the record button and it all goes pear shaped!

I know exactly what you mean. I used to call it "red light fever"- before I discovered another type of fever that can be a result of red lights ..or so I am told.
