Re: Hot Rails vs Jeff Beck Jr....
Both! Hehe. I have a hotrails in the bridge and JB junior in the neck of my strat. They work very well for what I do. I play mostly hard rock/heavy metal with some classic rock mixed in. I've never tried the JB Jr in the bridge, but I did have a JB in the bridge of my les paul and I didn't like it. The hot rails has great, punchy, heavy sounding, crunchy distortion for my rythym. The JB Jr. has great harmonics and sustain for my leads when I play it in the neck position. I can get pretty good clean sounds out of both as well, although I do have to tame the hotrails a bit at times. (just lowering the volume) The Jb sounds great and bluesy clean. I don't have the right middle pickup, so I can't comment how they all sound together right now.
