Which bucker to go along with HS-3 and YJM?

[Jovan]

It doesn't need to be DiMarzio it can be Duncan bucker, I have Charvel Model 3 so i have HS-3 and YJM here and i will put in it so what do you suggest, should i put HS-3 in the neck or YJM (the other one will go to the middle position) and which bucker should i put in the bridge to be similar to them in tone and output (as far as for tone think Yngwie Malmsteen just a bit stronger and tighter sound for rhytm) I also have JT6 trem on this guitar and i want to make it to be hard rock / shredder axe Thanks in advance guys

The YJM should go in the Neck as it is a more "volin" type of sound in that position over the HS3 (great for blues type rock) The YJM MAY sound a little thin in the middle (I have 2 strats with a YJM in the middle and think it sounds better in the neck with the HS3 in the bridge). The YJM and HS3 are pretty much the same pup with a different stagger on the YJM. You could put a Virtual PAF or Vitrual Hot PAF in the bridge and it should match up pretty good tone wise. Some have used the PAF Pro with the YJM/HS3 but I personally don't care for that combo.

Aham, I also tought about Paf Pro but i think that if nothing else that it has much stronger output so it would be difficult to balance, So virtual paf or hot version, tnx i will se about that more opinions?
