I know it's the Antiquities/Holmes/Frailins if I want vintage, singing PAF type tone. Question is, how are the above in a high-gain situation? Right now, my Classic Plus has a '59 in the neck (sounds kinda dead and muffled), and a Custom in the bridge (a little bright), and I would like to put some nice, singing quality pickups in.
I am not talking Metallica- gain using a Les Paul w/PAF's...but I would like to know I can still do early Van Halen, ZZ Top, UFO using these PAF clones without getting a squeeling, thin tone.
Know what I mean? Can I have my killer mellow old tone, AND a guitar that is happy growling out of a Marshall??
Thanks!
