How do the output levels compare btw? 59B vs PAF Master

Seems like the 59 has a little more output and a thicker tone.

Yes, Jazz neck model. After really getting a chance to try it out it sounds great and I'm leaving it where it is.

This weekend I put a set of Grover 406C autolocking tuners on the Santana and they were a direct replacement. No problems at all putting them on and they are a good improvement over the stock tuners especially when using the trem. I've ordered another set of the tuners to go on either my SE Tremonti or my SE Custom 24. Both those guitars will end up with the locking tuners in the end. I'll probably put this set I just ordered on the Tremonti when I get the new pickups in for it.

What pickups are you thinking of putting in the Tremonti? I have a Tremonti Custom SE and am looking for something a bit different than stock.

I'm planning to put a Custom 5 in the bridge and a Jazz in the neck. Right now it has a Dimarzio Norton in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro in the neck. Those are great pickups, but not what I'm wanting for this guitar. The Custom 5 and Jazz pickups are a great combo.
