What a coincidence! My shitty sound clip will include the Mini.

I run mine straight from the switch to input with no tone or volume and I expected the bridge to be really shrill and icepick-y but it's really not. It has some great grind with dirt and really shines for me with fast strummed aggressive stuff with dirt. It actually doesn't have as much top end as I thought it would. It's a little more mid-focused and warm but still has some bite on the top end.

I don't really play totally clean but it does that well too.
that makes me excited to try it! i don't play totally clean & i do a ton of fast strummed/aggressive playing (weird math rock type of stuff). :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I tried like 3 times! It's much easier on desktop.

So I'm actually surprised at how decent that sounded so I'm gonna do a video showing the pickup switching soon. Mostly showing off how thick and gnarly it sounds with both in series.
