Are you a bridge or neck pickup guy?

Re: Are you a bridge or neck pickup guy?

In the Schecter, the bridge when distorted, and split when clean. The Jag, mostly neck, neck through the rhythm circuit, or combined (the best clean sound in the world). The jag bridge pickup is too thin and twangy for most stuff. Been experimenting more with the neck on the Schecter, which is why I'm considering a Duncan for the neck, if I had more money.

I almost always use the neck pickup. Very, very seldom do I use the bridge pickup by itself.

all neck all the time! I also like pos 2 and 4 on my strat, and the bridge is used sparingly for heavier chording. But all neck! Strat neck pickups are very versatile on their own, they bite and they're soft and warm at the same time!

isnt it funny how the neck is named the rhythm pickup and the bridge lead? It's the other way around for most people!

I use the bridge pickup most of the time. I can't find a good sound out of the neck pickups in my guitars....maybe I just need new/better ones.

To answer the question: Yes.

I use all of my pups. In the Nitefly, each pup has a distinct tone, and I use them as needed. Also, the tone control is very sensitive in this axe, and rolling it 1-2 notches makes an identifiable tonal change.

On LesStrat, the tone is either on or off (no discernible changes in other positions). LS is wired for coil-splitting (thanks Robert_S and Jeremy), so there's, three, six, ten, uh...................LOTS of pup choices.
