Normal JB and normal 59n are not great for me. I really dig the Dimebucker for non-metal applications.

I truly like my Jazz necks; which do not seem to get a lot of love around here. I cannot say there is anything I am using for what I play, which I do not like.I miss the 80's (girls) !!!

Dimebucker was specifically designed for his full-mahogany neck/body short-scale with the rosewood board and loose tension strings.
On the old Duncan website it was highly recommended for guitars with basswood bodies and rosewood boards, and after trying mine in several hosts over the years I strongly agree.
It really needs the combing effect on the highs that basswood can contribute, otherwise it can indeed get shrill in a hurry, especially with a floyd as intended.

I love THICC tones, but I also need need need that bit of bite on the top end. That's why I've become such a big fan of A6 and A9 magnet swaps – I need that treble ZING that an A5 gives you, but I hate scooping the mids out, because I'm down with the thiccnessGibson LP, Burstbucker 3 A6, 490R A4

I also had it in a Squier Mustang HH shortly paired with an APHn and two 500k pots. Again, it was a good tonal pairing and had enough output to kick the front end of my Marshall pretty hard.Ain't nothin' but a G thang, baby.
