This guitar has a roasted mahogany body with a roasted maple neck, currently has a C5 and 59N. It has a dense, mid heavy sound so the scooped mid bridge pickup is almost mandatory (tried mid heavy pickups, just too much...)
I like the C5 sound, with its scooped mids and a bit more open sound than a mid heavy humbucker, but its just too hot for my tastes and I want something a bit more dynamic. 59N is fine in this guitar.
I'm wanting a more traditional low to mid output PAF sound with some push/edge, so looking at the 59B, 59hybrid or the Screamin demon to tryout next. The 59B seems closest to the C5. The 59 hybrid has more mids so that might be an issue, and the demon has all that treble, wondering if it might be a bit too bright?
I guess I should try all three, but hoping to eliminate one or more if it definitely won't be a good fit in my guitar.
Thanks
