What is the 2nd best neck pickup to the AN7?
I'm a big fan of the Air Norton 7, but I want something different now. I'm thinking of going with another Evo 7 in the neck because I've heard great things about that config. Any ideas? What do you guys recommend?

Blaze neck has a super sweet lead sound if you back off the gain a bit from normal rawk bridge p/u levels. i'd recommend it to anyone.
It's got the "For The Love Of God" tone... ...oh yes.

Yeah, that's the thing with the Blaze neck - it's almost TOO "Love of God."
 FWIW, I like the '59 enough that I'm seriously curious about the Jazz. If the JB wasn't supposed to just not be ideal for basswood I'd say grab 'em as a set. As it is, maybe a Jazz/Custom, since the custom is supposed to get on better with basswood?

I love the AN7, and I think it's equal to the Jazz.
But the 7-string versions? Jazz wins. Unless! You swap the mags, and put an A5 in the AN. Then it sounds on the same playing field again. Those are 2 of my favorite pickups ever. |

Well they all do different things. If you want super articulation the Jazz is the way to go. If you want a super smooth and fat neck sound, I think the Blaze neck is splendid. I like them both equally just for different tasks.
Gibson neck pickups are far and away my favorites, I wish there was a 7 string version of the 496R or the '57 Classic. But I like the Jazz, 59, Air Norton and the Blaze Neck. The Evolution neck model? Never tried but it could be interesting. |
