Benedetto A6 in the bridge for rock?

[eclecticsynergy]

Am curious whether it might make a decent vintage-plus output bridge pickup in a thin sounding guitar.
Fat yet detailed seems like a combination that could have off-label potential.
Has anyone here tried it for anything besides jazz?

PS: Anybody else think it's a bit ironic that a pickup named A6 uses and A5 mag?

I had only heard it in an archtop, and it came stock in that guitar, so I don't have a previous pickup to compare it to. I bet it is similar to the Hybrid, with maybe a touch more mids.

EVH used a 335 pickup, I do not see why it would not be something cool to try. I originally wanted to put one in my Iceman build with the Dimebucker

Someone has a set of Suhrs for sale right now. Get them.

I like Suhrs, they have a sort of slightly-hi-fi vibe to them that might indeed be a bit like the Benedetto.
I've got John's SSV neck and a double screw DSH bridge.

I wondered about that too. Was there an A1 through A5, before they got it right? :9:

LOL. And how long before there's a pickup named WD-40?
