Re: AP2 neck PG bridge.....WOW!
Once upon a time ago I was PAF style swap nutty. Put everything everywhere.
First - on the A2P - it gets a bad rep sometimes as the "Slash sound" especially his cartoony-overprocessed cheese-whiz tone of late. A2P is the sound of Appetite. great pickup in all kinds of ways. Peeps here really dig the bass/mids, naturally. But it has more than enough highs IMO.
Now - the PG bridge; Often accuse3d of being too thin. I don't get it. Neither does the Rev Billy G. The A2 in there just totally smooths the high end of the highs.
The combo: A2P neck and PG Bridge is my wide range go to. If you put the fattest of the fat in the neck, and the bright one in the bridge, and then tie them together with that A2 magnet - just an awesome range of tones. Cool thing here is the middle can be different than either with a little volume/tone changes. Interested to hear why you have not explored that???
The opposite pair, PG neck and A2P bridge is the close range combo: Brightest in the neck, latest in the bridge. Keeps a pretty even tone from bridge to neck, or at least not nearly as far apart as the other.
And of course, A2P set or PG set are pretty darnnenjoyable too! Hard to miss with any combo of those. And 59's usually mix and match in there well also.
What guitar is this in? First Duncans? First after market pickups?
