I have a 2014 Gibson Les Paul Futura (http://tinyurl.com/LP-Futura). I am not happy with the sound of the pickups. I replaced the bridge Burstbucker 3 with an Antiquity and next I want to replace the neck. I am thinking about using a Duncan STK-P1(http://tinyurl.com/stk-p1) in the neck but I am not sure that it will fit since I can't find the specs on the Gibson P-90H that is in the neck. Will the STK-P1 will fit in the neck pickup position? Any other neck pickup recommendations that will fit the 2014 LP Futura? Thanks.

I just checked that pickup out and it sounds great. I need to confirm that it will fit in the LP Futura neck position. Thank you for the suggestion.

I would think so. The Futura neck is just your standard LP P90, right? If so, it should drop right in. Understand that the PU ring actually mounts inside the route. This is unlike a Standard LP Humbucker, which the ring mounts outside the route.
