Re: PUP Question
A bridge position Invader in the neck will sound like A$$ in top of A$$ with a bit of crap and mung mixed in.

Re: PUP Question
there is a neck position Invader...just see if you can swap one of yours for a neck version...do NOT put an Invader bridge in the neck!

Re: PUP Question
Vou can try an invader bridge in the neck, you may like it and it won´t damage anything. If you don´t like it, you can still exchange it or trade it for something else in the classifieds
The tone will be VERY high output, excessively fat, not particularly clear, and very dark. IMO it could actually work well for sludge or doom metal, but I don´t think I´d want to keep the setup. But it would DEFINITEY briong down the house, would probably be THE heaviest tone ever :headbang:
The Invader Bridge will also balance with another Invader Bridge at the bridge, but the one in the neck will be set VERY far away from the strings to keep a good output balance. Jackson for example uses 2 JBs in the RR5, these Pickups are also identical, and the neck one sits lower in relation to the strings when the outputs are balanced.
THere´s also the option of removing the black oxide caps on one, and replacing them with "normal" poles or hex poles, to tighten up and define the sound more, which could make that a perfect pickup for someone. And maybe even take out 2 of the magnets, combined with the screw poles will make a Distortion bridge which I know for a FACT sounds killer in the neck. Not perfect for me, but great tone.
As you can see, you´re far from being Boned at this point

Re: PUP Question
I was under the impression that the large black oxide poles were *necessary* in keeping the sound tight on such an over-wound pickup??
Maybe I'm wrong but I would think that regular polepieces would lessen the tightness of the pickup.
I think I remember reading this somewhere in the FAQ.
