I'm working on a new project with a large mahogany body - firebird shape - Floyd and maple/rosewood board bolt on neck. Never had a mahogany bolt on before. In my alder superstrsts I favor Custom and Distortion humbuckers. In my set neck Hamer and SG I favor PAF, 59 and Slash pickups.

What pickups like you try out in the bridge position of such a guitar?

Alternative 8. I have one in my mahogany body Ibanez RG with a maple/rosewood neck and I love it.

TV Jones Classic Plus.

Well, for whatever reason, I find bolt-on neck guitars to favor the wood the neck is made of slightly more than the body. The body still has an effect though for sure.

I have a chambered mahogany body bolted to an Indian rosewood neck. I love the Alnico II Pro set in that guitar.
