Harder feel, very touch sensitive. More scooped, neck is more open, bridge is more aggressive. If you have a lighter Les Paul, for example, this will grow it some balls. These more aggressive 'Branes are more suited to harder rock, or classic rock styles. However, put these in the middle position and grow wood! Incredibly organic in the middle position, you would think your neck changed to maple! Pick the bridge position and Duane Allman comes to mind, even Jimmy Page, pick the neck position for Clapton in his Cream days. One of my first custom handwound P.A.F designs.
