    My classic stack got over powered by the dime I had in the bridge. Go with a cool rails in the neck. Nice fat sound with great cleans. For a single sized bucker, can't beat it in the neck IMHO.

        I have a classic stack in my Soloist. Like Fitz said, it's a little overpowered by my JB. It does not seem to give me that nice bubbly water of rocks "Dave Murray" sound which you're probably looking for. It has a nice clean sound, though. I'm going to try a Hot Rails money permitting.

          As a matter of fact. If you try a Hot Rails and don't care for it, let me know.

                The JB Jr. neck model is very tasty for a humbucking sound from a strat's neck position. Smooth, and it's loud enough to blend with the regular JB at the bridge.

                  what amp settings? and how high do you have the pup off the plate?

                  i have a HR in my strat at the neck, and i can only really get the 'woman tone' type weepy sound... is it more poweramp gain?

                    I typo'd. I didn't mean to say "bubbly water of rocks," but instead meant to say, "bubbly water over rocks"... but the first description has some strange ring to it, don't you think? Anyway, I'm from the northwest where we've got lots of streams, and that gurgling water sound just reminds me of that neck tone. Fast and furious, very smooth and seamless. The water here is COLD, though, which Dave's sound is not!
