Love the CS69s, always have. Sold a guitar with the Area 58-58-61 set last year after a successful decade with that set. Never tried the Area 67s.
The 69s are divine though lord knows I need boosters to get some thickness but it's hard to replicate that sweet vocal tone and glass as well as that sweet bite. Pedal stacking and boosters lead to noise so I've looked into the Areas.
Also, side question... has anyone who has used the 69s been any happier when they went a little beefier in the bridge? I've thought about it but I am fearful of losing the 2 position notched tone or never having that late 60s bite the way the 69s have after sacrificing for a thicker bridge. Your opinions there would be appreciated as well.
