I love the '59 neck but lows are too flabby and bassy

I don't have much faith in this business of lowering pickups. I've tried it and I still don't like the sound. It does not change the sound in any way.

I find that it definitely does change the sound, though for better or worse is entirely up to the user.

The Jazz has no place in a heavy metal guitar player's shopping cart.

WHAT??!!!!

You've got a '59 and you're contemplating doing a mag swap which will essentially make it sound and perform similar to a Jazz pup and you make an irrational statement like that!

You sound like a typical teenage heavy metal player who just wants to bang away at his guitar and make a lot of noise without knowing diddly squat about music or his own guitar.

Learn the basics first and you'll be a better metal player in the end.

Are you sure you want guitar to be your instrument of choice?
