Which is the brightest and/or least bassy Duncan A2 neck humbucker?

Exactly.

I offered a reasonable explanation why an A5 can be perceived as having a scooped response and your explanation was just: because I say it does.

Are you through with ad hominem attacks?

"Scooped" due to the magnet is an illusion, pure and simple.
That's what you call a "reasonable explanation"? Because I say so? Swell!

and your explanation was just: because I say it does.
It should be read as: because it does. You added the "I say". Again putting non existing words in the mouth of the counterpart, just because it suits your narrative.

You're taking hypocrisy to a whole new level... kudos!

Let me get one last post in before this thread gets locked.

Weaker magnets will generally produce a more middy tone than strong magnets. It happens because the weaker magnet encourages you to raise the pickup closer to the strings to get the same output.

Therefore the weak magnet will sound less mid-scooped than the strong magnet.

Regarding the Jazz (and APH), it is no secret that it uses poly wire instead of plain enamel.

I'll leave it to the experienced winders, physicists and electrical engineers specializing in the field to debate how much difference the wind makes when using the same amount of wire. From what I've seen it can get pretty heated and is enough for me not to just take anyone's word as gospel, especially from someone who steadfastly defended the idea that swapping connections between the two lugs on a tone pot is the definitive factor between '50 and modern wiring and to this day has never acknowledged that this is not the case.
