I decided to try the WGS ET65 in the wide body combo of my 22.
I previously had the WGS lead 80 clone loaded there.
To my ears, the 65 is warmer and softer feeling; more milk chocolate to the LD80's dark chocolate.
The LD80 has more volume, is tighter over-all, more hard-rock with a touch of metal, more "modern" sounding.
The ET65 has a less "heavy" bottom end which I think helps to expose the mids more. The highs seem to be more diffused.
The D'Lite continues to rule.

Guitar is '71 es335 stock bridge PU in OD.
