Matching different brands of pickups

[pooo]

Hi all, I have a Les Paul with a Dimarzio Air Norton in the neck and Steve's special in the bridge. I was thinking of swapping out the Steve's special with a Seymour Duncan JB. Will it match and sound right?

I don't see why not.

It'll work, but if you wire them according to each company's respective literature, you will run into phase issues. Just wire one pickup backwards (hot to ground & ground to switch) and you'll be fine. :burnout:
