Which PU for Neck on.............
« on: July 24, 2016, 08:26:11 PM »
Which Strat style pu (hum-cancelling w/ pole pieces) would give me the warmest, fattest sound on my '66 Duo-sonic in the neck position?

Many Thanks.

DiMarzio Virtual Vintage Heavy Blues 2 is the fattest of those which I tried. These include from DiMarzio Area 67, 58, 61, Virtual Vintage 54 Pro, Injector neck, Cruiser (but that one has rails). Virtual Solo would be even fatter but I have tried that only in the bridge position for which it is recommended.

Cheers Stephan
