Thanks, they kind of added up over the years. Old age has some advantages.

For the most part, with some rare exceptins (like most Melody Makers), Gibson single coils are P-90's, which are a totally different design than Fender singles. The P-90 has a way bigger magnet and bigger magnetic field, which produces a signal with more midrange, and which distorts easier than a Fender single. P-90's are sorta midway between a Fender single and a humbucker. I love 'em!
