Little 59' vs Full Size?

[LooseCannon]

I was wondering how do these two compare to each other?

I was actually surprised by how close they were to each other. Not exact, but close. So close, that I got rid of my Lil59 because I already had a full-size. If I didn't have a full-size, the Lil59 would be one of my first choices for a Strat neck in a bluesy/jazzy configuration. Nice pup.

Any other opinions?

If you don't want to get a new pickguard or your guitar is SSS routed under it and you don't want to route, the Little '59 is great. I've got one in my Strat and love the tone from it. Very close to the full-size model.

I would go the full size 59 because it gets a greater area of string movement. I think this would give you more tone variations because you can hit the string areas where the pole pieces are under. This string area would be smaller with the little version.
