JB and Pearly Combo

[todd richman]

I am about to have MJ rewind a set of pickups for me. They are presently CS Slash specs(I have about 8 sets of them in my various Historic Les Pauls). I want a little variety so I am having the bridge rewound to a JB Prototype with the A2 magnet. I am considering going with a Pearly Gates neck with a slight overwind(about 7.65K). All thoughts on the JB /PG combo in a Les Paul(maple top and mahoghany body, rosewood fingerboard) are welcome and needed!

Come on I know some of you have tried this combo. Please give me some ideas of tone, especially through a Marshall or equal style amp for Slash, Beck, Moore styles. Please!!!

I LOVE the PG neck pickup...in fact it is my favorite neck humbucker, I also have heard good things about a JB with an alnico II magnet...should be a good combo...
