Features:
Black bobbins
Non adjustable pole pieces
4-conductor wiring
hot output
Currently installed in the bridge position of an ESP Stephen Carpenter 6 string which has an alder body, mahogany side wings, maple neck through, and an ebony fret board. I mainly play through a Framus Cobra 100 watt tube amp but have also used it with a peavey 5150 and Hughes & Kettner triamp. All with great results.
I bought this pickup on a whim after hearing that Billy Howerdel (A perfect circle) uses the Anderson H2+.The H3+ is advertised as a higher output and thicker version of their popular H2 and H2+. I originally installed this in a Epiphone Les Paul custom and honestly was very underwhelmed by it. I ended up selling the guitar with the stock pickups and left this one in a box for a while. After growing tired of the 85 in my ESP I decide to give the Anderson another shot. Glad I did. This pickup had everything I was looking for in the ESP. It has a great crunch, tight low end, Clarity, and enough highs to cut through a metal mix without getting shrill. I had previously tried the Duncan invader (muddy), JB (shrill), Dimarizio Tone zone (good for rock and lower gain) , and the EMG 85 (one trick pony). None of those could get the array of sounds this pickup can and the Anderson smokes them all in the metal department.
The only downsides I've found were the non adjustable pole pieces and a slight microphonic problem. The pole piece thing is no biggie because the pickup is very well balanced and the microphonics I think were due to the pickup being very lightly wax potted.
I would recommend this pickup to anyone doing any type of rock music. Especially to metal players looking for high output without the pickup sounding shrill and sterile. This pickup has tons of chartacter and seems to make the guitar easier to play.
