JazzN & Alt8: Ash Body to Mahogany Body?

[mikediazong]

My JazzN & Alt8 are currently installed in my Rhoads (copy) V. Just wondering if there will be a huge difference in tone/sound if i install them to a mahogany body Les Paul compared to an ash body Rhoads V?

Rhoads V has an ash body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard, 24 frets, string through body.
Les Paul is an Epiphone. mahogany body and neck, rosewood fretboard, 22 frets.

I have an Alt 8 in my Trad Pro II and LOVE IT! It sounds awesome. Thick, punchy, tight, smooth highs. The JazzN should be perfect. I have a Full Shred in the neck. I put fillister screws in the bridge side coil to give it more beef.

Should be fine,IMO.
There will be differences,obviously,but I think you'll be OK!

Installing the same pickups in different guitars will certainly change the sound. But one flavor of great isn't much different from another when you think about it. You might notice more mids, but that isn't a bad thing.

I love the way a Jazz N sounds in a Les Paul. I have not tried the Alt 8 in one though.

Does anyone have a soundclip of an Alt8 in a Les Paul? Would really appreciate to hear one.
