...bright and clearer than a alnico 5? And what else do they use in strat and teles pickups besides alnico 2 and 5? I have WRHB's that i fitted with A2 and A5 magnets in place of the screw polepieces. A5 in the neck because i thought it would be clearer and brighter. But not quite as much as i'd have liked. Anything else in a fender type rod magnet that would be clearer/chimier than A5?
