Title: Area 61 neck position - Clean Sound
Post by: Anrai Kou on September 09, 2020, 05:26:06 PM

It has been a long time since I made a demo or comparison on my YouTube channel, today I am sharing something brief, the Area 61 pickup in neck position and how it works with the middle pickup that is alnico 5 is the one that initially brought the used guitar for the demo

Nice playing and tone!

The only thing is that we seem to slightly disagree what a "clean tone" is. Yours in the video is not exactly clean (in the sense of "there is no discernible overdrive or crunch"). To my ears it has a fair bit of crunch in it - which is fine to me, and your playing highlighted this in a beautiful way.

I had the Area 61 in one guitar in the neck and liked it there as well.
