I am sure this has been discussed before but I couldn't find it.
What pickups were in the Bolt? Super 2s? In all three positions?
And I am assuming Rosebud was 3 Super 2s?
And yes I have checked Waldo's site.
Thanks

You know I have to say that I can only come to one conclusion for the general disdain for Garcia's Bolt that is generally exhibited on this site. When I looked around for answers as to the pickups, I couldn't believe how many people were ripping it.
My conclusion:
You guys weren't seeing enough JGB shows at the Warfield from 1993-1995. Bolt through the standard on-stage Garcia set up sounded spectacular. OK Ok at Deadshows, Garcia's sound, Bolt or not, took a major dive in 1993 but that wasn't Cripe's fault. It was those damn in-ear monitor thingies.
I included this clip on a question re: the Whammy pedal. Worth posting again:
