My silverburst Kauer Banshee is a great guitar but I just haven't been able to find a pickup that I like in the bridge. I'd like to be able to use it with roughly the same settings on my amp/Kemper as I use with my other guitars. The guitar is pretty mid heavy and my usual A2 options are muddy and lacking top end. Most recently, I tried a TB-16 and all the various magnet swaps. Stock A5 isn't bad but a little too much sizzle on the top end. It came with a SNS set and they just sounded dead in this guitar. The Full Shred neck is there to stay, but I need to find the right bridge pickup. I'm thinking something with a little more top end than an APH1, but not dramatically so and possibly a little hotter. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: Suggestions for a Firebird-ish
if the slash isnt enough, then the pg+ wont be either. a cs pg would be sweet but $$ maybe a3 in something you have? little cleaner bottom than a2
i have a sns set just sitting there and im temped to put a2 mags in since im an a2 bucker junkie. trembucker spaced, 4.75k screw coil 5.11k stud. can you go into what you didnt like about both the a4 and a2?
