pickup matching....

[Boleslaw Gers 666]

I assume this won't work, but I wanted a (bridge-middle-neck) PAF Pro/Hot Rails/Super Distortion setup. But 2 things: 1) the Duncan website doesn't list output numerically so that I can match with DiMarzio, and 2) The SD that I want in the neck is hotter than the PAF Pro in the bridge. I assumed that wouldn't work, but would it? If that doesn't work, I will either go Super Distortion in bridge or probably PAF Pro in the bridge. What Duncan pickups match up with the PAF Pro in the neck? Is the hot rails neck lower output than the PAF Pro? I know I have a lot of questions, but I'm very open to ideas. What are the specs of the Custom/'59 hybrid? If you can answer all or ANY of these questions or throw out some ideas, I'd be very grateful.

Was there a question in there? I didn't understand a word of what you said! :laugh2:
Can you please re-phrase the question?

Into the valley of death rode the 600.... cannons to left of them, cannons to right of them, volley'd and thunder'd.... THE TROOPER!!! Nice avatar of Brucey there. But anyway, basically what I asked is will a super distortion in the neck work with a PAF Pro in the bridge and a hot rails in the middle. And if not, what are some good hard rock combinations.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with ANY of those pups, aside for the Hot Rails, which I have in the middle + neck of one guitar. The bridge pup on that guitar is a JB, btw, and they match perfectly.
