Your favorite neck pickup?

[braintheory]

Mini hum or P90

Or Texas Special

Mini-hums should be way more popular than they are

 

[JohnnyGtar]

Seymour Duncan SH-2n for humbucker. DiMarzio HS-2 or DiMarzio Heavy Blues - DP403 (Not the Heavy Blues 2 - DP409)

 

[Floyd Eye]

Werd

 

[SoooRad]

Duncan Quarter Pound.

 

[lester]

Out of the ones I've tried. DiMarzio paf pro.

 

[Skolphy]

BKP Emerald....Duncan Original Parallel Axis...Dimarzio Illuminator.

 

[Devin]

Absolute favorite is the Dimarzio Twang King

As far as humbuckers go, probably the good ole Duncan '59

 

[70 Mach 1]

P90 or P90 hot
Super D, Yes a super D. nooooo mud

many 70s guitars came stock with 2 of them

nothing else sounded right to me

 

[Techdeth]

Lungred m6 neck

 

[njshred]

SD 59, lil 59 if single routed.

 

[MusicIsLife]

I like the SD Alnico II Pro in the neck, wired for coil splitting. For me it's the perfect complement to a JB in the bridge.

 

[Toni Kroos-ant]

Neck pickups are for pussies.

Yes.

However, the Dimarzio Humbucker From Hell sounds pretty good in the neck position

 

[Bronco]

I threw a Dimarzio Breed into my Ibanez S series Prestige, and it is OK, not blowing me away.

I have a JB in bridge and it is awesome!

So looking for a new neck pickup.

What do you use and endorse?

Don't be afraid to try a JB in the neck as well! Steve Stevens used to do this; tried it myself and have been sold ever since.

 

[itsme]

I too favor the Alnico II Pro. I run the bridge version in the neck with a high output bridge

 

[fuzzyguitars]

Jazz neck for me

 

[gibsonash]

All Paf syle around 7K / 7.5k A2 works for me .
Cheap : Tonerider Classic or A4
Priced : SD Seth Lover or Antiquity

 

[the rossness]

Dimarzio Area 67’
SD Jazz

 

[DanTravis62]

Scotts A2

Duncan phat cat

Wagner Crossroads

 

[NowYou'rePlayingWithPower]

Agree with the last two posts.
The 59 goes with the JB and the Phat Cat compliments it pretty well, too.
Have had that latter setup a couple of times in Gibsons, not sure about a sabre, though.

 

[Speeddemon]

Duncan: Pearly Gates neck and Screamin' Demon
DiMarzio: DP103 36th Anniv PAF, Air Norton and Breed neck, but...the Breed neck needs to be in the right guitar.
In my Charvel So Cal it was so so, a bit too jangly up top (alder body, maple neck, bolt on neck and Floyd Rose probably all added to that) but in my Gibson 67 RI Flying V (all mahogany with ebony fb) it's friggin' perfection.
