Middle pickup suggestions? Thanks!

[JGmhz]

Hi guys. This is my first post. I hope you guys can help out with a quick question. Thanks! Can you suggest a Duncan pickup for the middle position. I have a Duncan distortion in the bridge and a JB Jr. in the neck. I need to add a middle pick up that has no noise. How does the duckbucker sound? Is that a stacked humbucker in a single coil space? Can that pickup be split? Thanks again! JGmhz (Hum, Single, Single)

Hi JG; Welcome to the forum. I can only comment on the technical side of your question. The Duckbucker is not stacked. Its a side-by-side coil design. I don't believe it can be split either, simply because of the way the pole pieces are aligned. If you "split" it, you'ld only have 3 strings with pole pieces.

Someone else can comment on the sound.

Perhaps a Hot Rails in the middle to even out the EQ?
