If its a bridge position Invader and you put it in the neck, you will have the worlds muddist and worst sounding neck position!!! If its an Invader neck, it might be OK????

yeah it is a neck pickup, just wondering if the sound will be heavy and crunchy as compared to if it were in the bridge position

Don't know if they still make the neck Invader this way, but when I had them they have a capacitor in it to shunt some of the highs directly to ground. I always thought it killed too much of the highs, plus that's what you have a tone knob for, so I always took wire cutters and pulled it out.
I can see what they were going for -- 7.2k with ceramic magnet would be really shrill, at least on paper, but I always thought it sounded a lot better with the cap out of there. Maybe a cap with a lower value than what was in there would be better?

I love the sound that Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold gets from his...Invaders in both neck & bridge positions. It's because of that band that I keep thinking about an Invader in the bridge of my Epi LP.
