Frequently asked questions
Can I use the APH-2n in the bridge position?
The APH-2n is specifically designed as a neck-position pickup and voiced for that application. The High Voltage Bridge is engineered for bridge position in high-gain contexts. Using a neck pickup in the bridge position would result in less articulation and clarity than intended for heavier styles.
Which pickup is better for blues playing?
The APH-2n is purpose-built for blues and classic rock with its warm, vintage-forward character, smooth treble roll-off, and natural compression. The High Voltage Bridge is voiced for metal and modern high-gain genres, making it less ideal for traditional blues expression.
What's the difference in output between these two?
The High Voltage Bridge has 8.808k ohms DC resistance versus the APH-2n's 8.3k ohms, placing the Bridge in the aggressive output category while the APH-2n sits in the articulate-to-moderate range. The High Voltage also has higher inductance (4.886 H) for more aggression.
Are both pickups hand-built?
The APH-2n is explicitly hand-built in California with traditional potting methods and premium materials including wooden spacers and wax potting. The High Voltage Bridge description does not specify hand-building or location of manufacture.
