single coil sized humbucker dilema..

[herbychimp]

Recently purchased a Billy Corgan strat (I dont really care for Corgan but just wanted a reasonably priced hard tailed strat with some high gain options) and I have a pickup dilema. I have grown to like the neck pickup (BC1 based on air norton?) and the Chopper is the middle is useful, although it needs a tone control) But the BC2 at the bridge is not for me. I think this is based on the s/c sized Tone zone with a few tweaks but I just dont dig the sound. I am contemplating wether to have a different scratch-plate and a full size h/b but this will really change the look of the guitar. In terms of replacing the BC2 with another s/c sized humbucker I have already disguarded the Jbjr but any other ideas would be welcome. Anyone one have any experience with the s/c sized Super distortion?

The Super Distortion S has that vintage Super Distortion roar.

Sounds best in a band situation.

I tried a Fender Hot Rod Strat that had the Tone Zone S and did not care for the feel, "rubber" response.
