Re: LD: Your opinions please - Terratec Axon AX 50

["Ricky Graham" <rock.guitar.guru@btinternet.com>]

The Graphtech P/U are great, Andy. Very clean, I love the sound of the 
piezos compared to my magnetics. It really has changed my guitar sound, I 
hope for the better.

I'm going to go with the AX50. I'll let you know how I get on.

Cheers,

Ricky
