The only bridge pickups I tend to like are the Duncan Custom Series, like the Custom 5, Custom, Custom Custom, JB. So far, I like the C-5 the best, but am still interested in trying more magnets. I've already used an Alnico 4 in a C-5 nickelcovered, and found that it added a bit of mids, but lost some warmth and bounciness. The C-4 turned out to be a very articulate pickup with great tone, but a little harder feeling under the fingers.
I've always though CC's had the highs too choked off for my taste, and the JB a bit middy. This leads me to believe that I may really like the Custom 3.
Has anyone here become a big fan of a Custom with an Alnico 3 magnet?
