Feel free to share your experiences. Thinking about putting a Painkiller-N in the bridge of an LP-shaped guitar for reference sake.

Re: Hot(ish) NECK pup in BRIDGE?
Well, there are all sorts of Dimarzio Neck pickups that are regularly used in the bridge position. The one that comes to mind fitting your criteria is the Breed neck pickup.

Austin"Brobucker? Does it smell like Axe body spray, Smirnoff Ice, and is best suited for playing Nickleback covers?"

Hi there SrDeMaFp,
I think I speak for all of me when I say- I'll give you 5 bucks to change that photo and last but not least that quote. I may not be able to sleep for days after that!
Yes, it is a free world. Just my 100 cents. I'll probably get censured under the freedom of speech act.

Re: Hot(ish) NECK pup in BRIDGE?
There are only 2 issues I could think of. 1) string spacing. The strings are farther apart at the bridge than the neck. Dunno if it's enough to matter, but still something to think about. 2) magnets/winds. Usually neck pickups have weaker magnets to keep from pulling down the strings at the neck and have lower DC resistance. This could make it a little wimpy in the bridge.
I'm not an expert though, so I could be wrong.

Re: Hot(ish) NECK pup in BRIDGE?
I see people using D-Activator necks in the bridge all the time over on sevenstring.org. It's super bright, so it keeps the low end clear. Imagine it would kinda suck for leads since I find it to be a little too bright in the neck.Current Gear:
LTD MH-400 (Gotoh GE1996T bridge; Black Winters)
LTD EC-1000T/CTM (BKP Ragnaroks)
Squier Vintage Modified 70s Jazz V
Duncan 805 OD
Jet City JCA100HDM
Jet City JCA100LTD
Mesa Dual Rectifier
Jet City American Custom Modern 2x12
