It's noisy because it's basically a P-90.

Well, an active P-90 at that then. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
I remember someone describing it as "a P-90 on steroids". To my ears it sounds just as loud as the 81/85.

I have two. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
One from the original production runs (I'm assuming this. It is old and worn as hell), and a new custom-made one (that I ordered) with the quick connect wires.

And I prefer the warmer 85 in the bridge and something brighter like the 81 or 60 in the neck.
