Nico's got some great chops and some great gear! These are FANTASTIC videos! Thank you! ...and the first videos of my Low Output Set, actually. I'll have to get these up on my website ASAP.

All my pickups are machine wound, btw. Hand made, of course, but machine wound just like PAFs were back in Kalamazoo. This set was wound on an old Russian trafo winder converted to pickup use, and somewhat modernized with a digital counter, by me. It's a clunky mean old machine with a bad attitude that winds a mean pickup! These are my standard Low Output PAF Set with the default long A2s. I have the same set (but aged) in my favorite R9.

Just goes to show that a low output pickup can preform exceptionally well in a high gain situation and then clean up like a gem!

Thanks for taking the time to do this, Nico. You rock!
