The Pickup Place / Advice for pairing with a Virtual Hot PAF (DP214) in a HH Superstrat

« on: May 17, 2016, 12:23:37 AM »

I have a Virtual Hot PAF dp214 I bought from a guy a long time ago and never did anything with it.  I am finally going to use it in a HH superstrat build.  I don't think it is F spaced, but I am not thinking I am worried about that based on what I have read. 

I am looking to end up with a kind of Rivers Cuomo-esque sounding guitar.  So, was thinking of putting the Humbucker from Hell in the neck.  The VH PAF seems to be just slightly hotter than the Seymour Duncan Trembucker '59 Rivers had in his guitar, but not too much, and again, I am not that worried about it being a full tribute guitar or anything.  Just want to make sure it will work ok. 

Any advice would be appreciated.  If you want to suggest a different neck pickup, feel free also, and please tell me why you make your suggestion. 

Thanks!
