So I went down to Gutiar Center to get some new pickups for my Les Paul yesterday. A lot of pickups were out of stock, they only had a set of Duncan 59's, a Jazz, a Pearly Gates, and a Dimebucker there. I went down there with the intention of getting at least a new neck pickup.
My original intention was to get a C5 and a Jazz for this guitar, but for some reason I went out on a limb and bought 59's for both the bridge and the neck. I think it's because I can't stand the Air Norton / Super Distortion combo and want it out of my guitar as soon as possible.
I think I know what to expect from the 59 in the neck - smooth, warm, vintagey kind of tone and nice cleans... something that can scream with heavy distortion... right? What about the 59 in the bridge - what can I expect from that? I'm expecting a Led Zeppelin / Aerosmith etc. kind of classic Les Paul sound. But I'm already doubting that it's hot enough for my taste....
If I don't like the 59 in the bridge I'm gonna switch that with the Screamin Demon in my Strat's middle position
