markdavid Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 thanks guys , any particular set of Barts ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Burpster Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I have a set of 8CBP the classic bass sound in my H1-P, its very even and quite dark.... I"m very pleased with 'em... I'm not sure if they do teh same options with J, but they also do an S variant in teh P version which is more bassy.... that would be VERY dark..... Although I'm not sure thats availale in teh J varient... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markdavid Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks for the replies , looks like it barts then , I noticed they seem to in the past had sets of pickups in "Deep" and "Bright" models is this still the case or have these been phased out?
