Hi Tom,
I just picked up michaelomiya's Atom, which has an HW2A pup in the bridge position. It sounds absolutely awesome to me. I am sure it isn't for everyone, but with my gear, my incredibly inept playing and a completely tin ear, it is just great!
I can't find any reference to it on the website. Are they still available as a secret for Forum members only if I wanted to order a guitar with one?
Thanks and happy new year!

I've been running an HW2 in my Drop Top for the past 6 months and am loving it. I'd describe it like a H2 with a more traditional mid presence but still keeping the wider bandwidth that the Anderson pickups are known for. It splits brilliantly and matches nicely with the SFs in the neck/middle. It doesn't have the 'sparkle' of the HF2, but still does a nice clean sound with a similar mid boosted characteristic.
I believe they can be special ordered through your dealer just like any other pickup.
man, you nail it every time! exactly what we were after, more traditional while keeping some of the H stuff.
i thot HW2's were not avail? i just ordered a hdtc, expect it shortly (:D :D ) and was told that i could not get that pup anymore. :eek: that's a bummer, sounds like it is what i'm after?! roy mentioned the HC2 would be a choice to go with. it does sound incredible although covered as i have put it in one of my strats.
maybe the next one......after the cobra! ;) :rolleyes: :D my wife does not hear this, ok!!!! :)

FWIW, I love (loved) that P/UP. I spoke to Roy and we're gonna "ask" the Supreme Commander if he will graciously "allow" me to purchase a couple more to refit my other TAG's....:D ;)
see you guys next week...
m.:rolleyes: :p
