Just curious. Some dude I know is selling a neck Hot Soapbar which I read is about 11k. That's plenty output for me as a P90, and I was just wondering if they are essentially the same as the bridge, just not wound as hot, and will it work?

I'm currently using a vintage soapbar with an a5/a8 mag combo in one of my guitars, and I just routed one of my les pauls to fit soapbars and am thinking of dropping this one in with an a5 mag swap since I'm not a fan of ceramic.

I've got an 11k or so Custom P-90 neck model in the bridge....it's RAWKALICIOUS!

Ceramic! (apparently my fave tone for the bridge)

PRS does this! SP90-3n in bridge position. SP-90-1n nearest neck. I am about to do something very similar to my Gibson LP Junior Special.

I decided to keep the ceramics in the hot soapbar neck pickup in the bridge. I was quite surprised how nice it sounds. I normally do not like ceramics in humbuckers, but this being my first ceramic P90, is totally in a different tonal universe. I think it's just the right output too, i feel that if this had anymore output, it would be a tad too hot for me for single coils.
