guitar_randy Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 How mismatched would it be you think if I replaced the bridge pickup in my studio with a 57 classic plus and left the 490r in the neck?I may do this and somewheres down the road put a classic 57 in the neck position,but would it sound hideous with a 57 classic plus in the bridge and 490r in the neck in the meantime?

jdriehuis Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 depends i guess if you leave the 57 classic plus uncovered or not. But at the end of the day it depends if you like the sound and you shouldn't care what other people like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdriehuis Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 if you put a cover plate on both it won't clash in looks. Soundwise I haven't got a clue sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soundwise I haven't got a clue sorry Thats ok,I'm more concerned with the sound,like when in mid position,both pickups on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdriehuis Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 you could always put a 57 classic in the neck and a 57 classic + in the bridge. I love that set up in my classic antique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brundaddy Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have a beater LP studio that I stuck a 57 classic plus in the bridge position and it's perfect. Do it, you'll love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveinspain Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I don't think there are any rules... Experimentation is the best way to find a unique sound... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
