Wow, same wind. I didn't know that, thanks! I was thinking of the Jazz or the Sentient.
How do you feel about Jazz vs Sentient working in Basswood? I'm totally set on the Nazgul for the bridge.

It just makes it a Jazz like Blueman said. Great pickup though! The Jazz is my favorite neck humbucker. Very clear and articulate without losing the warmth you'd expect from a humbucker

Yeah! This made me think of possibly magnet swapping my Gibson 57 Classic with some kind of A5 and throw it in the Charvel with the Nazgul.
What's the difference between a UOA5 and a regular A5?

A2 and UOA5 are not incredibly different sounding. UOA5 would be a slight bit louder with a touch more highs but thats about it. It would be a pretty minor shift tonally.

A little more treble, a little less mids. If an A2 PU's too warm and rounded, & you want to keep the same basic feel, try an UOA5.

Cool, thanks. I've been looking at the new website and checking sound clips. My favorite neck pup at the moment based on those clips is the 59n.

Ah, but you really can't tell much by sound clips, as you're probably not using the same guitar, wood, amp, tubes, speakers, effects, etc as they did on the clips. Any given PU will very different in an LP vs a Strat. A '59N will even sound different in a LP vs an SG.

Re: Alnico II Pro with an A5 Magnet - Neck
Hi guys! I just recently ordered a UOA5 from mojotone to swap out the A2 bridge in my A2pro - looking to add some lows/highs a bit of output... when i take the old magnet out, what's the best/easiest way to make sure i put the new magnet in right?

Awesome thank you guys... do you think the UOA5 will give me a sharper attack and more lows/output? The low e and a strings on the A2P are just a little too flubby for me... lowering the base side and raising the pole pieces have helped, but I still want a little more cut.
