This was through a Fender Deluxe tube amp and no effects other than
a little amp reverb.

Comments/Testimonials:
"Skeesix
PUP Rocks! WOW! what a powerful pickup, I finally got the thing
installed in a Comacho box that I "solidified" with scrap
oak peices inside. I played it out last night at a local open mike
and it was a SCREAM! All I used was a 19 watt Epiphone practice
amp but it was plenty loud enough.I played from clean to crunchy,
speed metal on a cigar box? Who'd a thunk it possible. Anyway, thanks
again Skeesix, and you will be hearing from me again soon when I
order more of those puppies" Joe Cerroni
"I received my Skeesix 3 banger pickup today, and I'm really
impressed with the quality workmanship
When I got the neck
mounted I put on a string with the rough, high nut and bridge just
to hear this thing, no pots, just a jack, and even with the string
about 3/4 in. abovethe PU, it screamed!! (When I picked the string)
Muted the string....total silence! OH YEAH!!!!" Johnny Cox
