I'm set on getting the Seth neck for my LP Std. I'm just trying to decide on a low-output bridge pickup that would go well with the Seth.
I've had the JB, and though I liked it's thickness, it's upper mids were just a bit too much for me. Then the Custom, and though I liked it's EQ curve (PAF-ish) much better, it lacked some of that thickness I liked with the JB.
Since I have the Rectoverb, I really don't need a high output pickup. It has plenty of gain. I like the way the lower output '59 and Jazz neck on my other guitars push the amp less and let everything "breath" more.
So, I guess I'm looking for a lower output pickup that is thick, smooth, with a PAF EQ (relaxed mids). I'm not saying JB thick, but... you get the idea.
I'm guessing with less push, I can increase the gain to compensate and get the thickness I want. This guitar is primarily used for bluesy rock through hard rock.
So, what is the prescription? '59? matching Seth? APH II? PG?
Thanks for the advice and help.
