Neck suggestions...Suggestions Please

[sjduff]

Working on my LP Traditional Pro. Hate the Burstbucker 3 at the bridge.
Microphonic as all get out. Like the tone until it starts squealing.

Thinking of a Pearly Gates at the bridge but wondering what to try at the neck position.
Looking for something with a tight really well defined low end.
Something with teeth and bit more bite to it then usual neck position.

Will be replacing pots, and caps as well....no more coil splitting nonsense either.

Thanks,

Duff

welcome to the forum!

500k pots for the neck for sure. getting a neck pup to have teeth is tough due to the position, tight and well defined low end sounds like the jazz neck to me. if you like the bb3 you could just have it potted

"Well defined", "teeth", "Bite". Sounds like a Pearly Gates neck (with an A5 if you really want a pup with bite). Possibly a Jazz.
