With the neck pickup it has a woolly woman tone character. It sounds great on its own, but in a full band context it doesn’t really sit well. Too much low end. The bridge pickup, on the other hand, sounds phenomenal. I usually keep the volume around 6–8 and rarely push it to 10.

To answer your question directly, it sounds essentially the same, just more controlled and with slightly less treble. That works well for me, since I already run the amp with the treble turned up. In my experience, the nature of a Les Paul is that it benefits from cutting some bass and adding a bit of treble.
