distortion neck in the bridge?

[shred-dog]

anybody ever use a distortion neck 12.7k in the bridge ? i was thinking it would be cool since it would have a little less output

I like neck pickups at the bridge. I had a Fast Track 1 at the bridge of my Strat that was a ton of fun for rock.

Pretty cool actually. Not a whole lot of bass- just enough, but it's clear because of the lower output, and VERY raw. I nice snarling midrange to it. I still prefer the Custom though.

I've used the 59' neck in the bridge of a guitar, and it was very cool. I think it works better than a bridge pup in the neck.

I had a Gibson 490R in the bridge for awhile, it was pretty decent too. Maybe a bit ice-picky but I like the midrange profile, and it was still pretty smooth.

It will probably sound cool. The clean tone might be a little cleaner.
I have not tried it, but I have put a small ceramic magnet in a DD and that was pretty cool too.
