How would a LW metal in Bridge with LW classic in neck sound?

[david411]

i want a LW metal in the bridge and inevitably those give crap for clean tone, so i wouldnt want another one in the neck but i need a matching active pickup, how would a LW classic in the neck sound with a LWmetal in the bridge sound? i mean would the pickups contast well?

Hi David:

Thanks for the post.

Actually, the LiveWires Metal set is exactly what you described: a Metal for the bridge and a Classic for the neck. This gives you a lot of diversity in tone, and lets you back off for a cleaner rhythm sound.

Jackson / Carvel uses this setup on their Model A:

I hope that helps
