Slash's tone always sounded a bit underpowered to me.

All I've got to say is, Pearly Gates is a lame name for a rock pickup
Tsuken will be along any time now to frown at you and tell you why they're called that
Neck and bridge are indeed different.

No, that's the '59 model. "What a brand new '59 LP" would have sounded like, anyway.
The A2Pro and PG are variations on that theme, the PG being the slightly overwound, "Texas", Billy Gibbons flavour.
