Can anyone tell me what the difference in output or tone is through the spectrum of Guild humbuckers? I'm curious what the variance between 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s really is. I'm aware that the 90s pickups are smaller and the 60s pickups are even smaller still, but without hearing them, it's hard to tell the difference.

Great Dane,

I've heard that the Guild 60's minis were a little hotter than Gibson minis. The minis sometimes sound a little twangier than the 70's Guilds, which get more of a big strong Gibson sound. But my hearing isn't very good--about as bad as my thinking.

PS When did Fargo get rid of Wells?

Sounds choice. It looks like you have convincing evidence of the hotness of minis. After this, I don't think one will be enough.
