Neck Pickup ideas for Custom TB-5 in the bridge

Re: Neck Pickup ideas for Custom TB-5 in the bridge

What about a DiMarzio D Activator X neck?

Based on what you've stated you're looking for, i don't think it would be a great match. I had a D Activator set in a guitar and the bridge and neck had very similar tones. It sounds almost like having a guitar with an 81 in the neck and bridge. If you're into that, great. If you're looking for what you described in your original post, the Air Norton is the best match DiMarzio has in my opinion. It is truly a fantastic pickup.

Was it a D Activator or D Activator X?
