Hi my friends,
Me personally..I belong to the small group of players who doubt the "huge role" of the pickups in an electric guitar.Other things are much more important to the sound (always in my opinion).Like the quality of wood ofcourse,weight,neck/body-connection,bridge(and if this is "fixed" or "floating"),nut..but this is another issue we can discuss in another thread.
When I responded to @Armin I had more his points in mind.Most of all because he is right about point 1) and most of all 4) too..
Who are the guys who prefer mostly highgain-profiles;Right,the ones who also play some "axes" with high output-PU´s(from what I know some what like EMGs 81/85 etc) and sure some kind of Floyd Rose style bridge,thin necks and so on.And also very surely they will choose some kind of 5150/Triple Rectifier(talking about fizz) etc profile..so we talk about a lots of potential to produce some kind of mess if you don´t know about the issue.In these cases a floating bridge really does not add clearity and the "right high frequencies"..
All this will not really help to hear the "true character" of a profile.As @Armin said;Less gain.Play (if possible) the profile together with your bands music etc,etc
Greetings
