Duncan Jazz Neck VS. Dimarzio PAF Pro

[Watroba]

I know this is a Seymour Duncan forum, so it is possible the answer to my question may be somewhat biased. However, I ask you to please decide without favor or prejudice.

I'm having a hard time deciding between these two. I know that pickup choice is based soley on user opinion, so I cannot ask everyone to choose for me. I'm simply asking to see what the general opinion is. What do you prefer?

-Thanks

i had a DM PAF and liked it and now have the Air Classics and love 'em, so if the PAF PRO has a more vowel sound to it it should be great.

I don't know any of them but it seems to me the PAF pro it's a pretty hot pickup for the neck. Based on purely speculation I'd say that PAF PRO it's quite hotter than the JAZZ. Just compare the DC resistance: 7.5 K the Jazz and 8.5K the PAF PRO. I would choose the Jazz for a clear, articuladed tone and the PAF PRO for an overdriven tone.

I find it very hard to believe that there is a better neck pup than a duncan jazz!
