The TV Jones® TV Classic™ neck pickup provides clean, compressed highs and mids with a tight and controlled low-end, while the TV Classic Plus™ bridge pickup bring a little more attitude to the party with a slightly rounder top end and higher output, making this a versatile combination that can cover a lot of sonic territory.
