Anyone giggen with a swamp ash strat body, HSS configuration, in the style of Rock,Hard Rock,Classic Rock, Heavy blues Rock going through a Marshall DSL/TSL head,V30 or Green backs Speakers?

What Bridge pick ups is someone currently using?

How is it blending in a live band gig setting?

Well, kinda. I have a swamp ash HSS that I play through a Fractal Friedman Dirty Shirley model. I use a Custom Shop 59/Custom Hybrid in the bridge.

Dave, is there anything different about your 59/Custom other than it's a custom shop build?

Mincer, How does it sound in a live band context?

It is double screw, with a rough cast magnet, as well as rw/rp so it will play well with the other pickups.

Well, it rocks, and it is perfect with the swamp ash. It has snap and crunches well. The music is sort of jazzy & bluesy rock stuff, which it works really well for.
