    The Dimarzio pickup selector picked the HfH too. I’ll have to look into both if those.

    I’ve got a Sentient in a 7 string Ibby. In that guitar at least, it isn’t what I’m looking for.
    I’ll have to look into the Super 70. I know absolutely nothing about them.

    A friend had one in his LP. It did sound good.

    I hadn’t thought of the Slash. I am a big fan of A2 mag pickups. I’ll check out some YouTube vids.

    Ideas??

    started a topic Neck pickup recommendations

    Neck pickup recommendations

    Looking for recommendations for a neck pickup in my LP. Bridge pickup is a Custom Custom. Im looking for it to cover classic through modern rock/hard rock. Im not necessarily looking for a “metal” pickup. It’s not really my thing.
    I’d like something that has a round, tubular tone under gain and a full warm clean sound.

    I’ve been using a Dimarzio Bluesbucker and I like it but it’s not quite there for me. Currently I have an Air Classic, which I don’t love. It’s too thick and bassy.
    I have a Fokin pickup in my Kramer Focus and it’s pretty damn near what I’m looking for. But that guitar is alder so I’m not sure if it will sound the same in a mahogany guitar?
    I also have a BKP Rebel Yell that is a contender.
    Im leaning towards a Dimarzio only because it want the double cream look. But I’m open to any suggestions for any brand.

    Ideas??
    Thanks
