    Slug is North, so to combine the Slug Custom coil with a middle single and get hum canceling, you’d want a standard style Duncan Strat in the middle? (South, Non-RWRP)

    Do I have that right?

    I like the hybrid with its standard A5 mag ok, but I like the more smooth tone with an A2 much better. When it is split (usually to the Custom coil) it obviously sounds like a split Custom Custom. My favorite C/59 is with an A8 magnet. That gives is the smooth character of the A2 mag but with more oomph and a more solid bass. And when split it is like the C8 (one of my favorite bridge pups) split.

    I want to know what an A2 pickup sounds like in there. My Hybrid has double screws with a roughcast A5.

    Thanks Dave. That's what I thought, but wasn't sure.

    I was thinking that an A2 would make it close to a Custom Custom / A II Pro. Might be sweet. Also, which coil is the Custom and which is the 59?

    Thanks all.
