Interesting, though maybe trivial thing I just noticed, if you play with voicings a bit you can voice lead nearly an entire octave chromatic scale through the A section:
E-9/Bb7#5 (F#)
Eb-9 (F)...
Couple of reasons.... on my jazz box.... single notes just don't sustain that long. They fade and somewhat loose the feel, both harmonically and rhythmically of what I'm trying to play.
I've never compared them side to side but I was looking for a mellow Telecaster neck pickup a few years back, I settled on SD Alnico 2 pro. The alnico 2's had the reputation of having a softer treble...
