The Virtual Vintage '54 Pro uses the same ground breaking technology as the Area 58 and Area 61 pickups. The '54 Pro replaces the Virtual Vintage '54 and Virtual 2 middle pickups. It has a warm, smoky sound, fattens up when you pick hard, and has a special grade of Alnico 2 magnet to reduce string pull. And like all of the Virtual Vintage models, it's dead quiet.
The major difference between the '54 Pro and the Area 61 is in pick attack. The '54 Pro has a fatter, woody tone, and the sound almost seems to compress when picked hard. Blues players favor this type of sound for the way it fattens up solos, particularly in the bridge position. It's also good in the neck and middle positions to warm up bright-sounding guitars.
