Ibanez S370, which pickup for neck?


Hi Everyone, I have got an ibanez S370(2000), and i'm going to put a dimarzio Evolution on the bridge, however, i don't know which pickup i should put on the neck. I plan using the neck pickup for a juicy rythm sound, but i'd also like for it to have a slight vintage tone as well, for things like hendrix and 80's hard rock(but it still has to be quite versatile for other things).. My friend told me to put a PAF pro or joe, but i'm not quite sure if that's the best option.
That's where i need your help. Thanks in advance!

Re: Ibanez S370, which pickup for neck?


I use an Air Norton in the neck with the Evo in the bridge (and have used the 7 versions too) and the two go together magnificently. The AN sounds excellent clean and splits/parellels beautifully but doesn't go clonky and tinny when you hike the drive up like most "vintage" toned pickups do - it goes smooth and silky but you can hear each note picked.

If you do want to go for that more traditional vintagely toned neck pickup, by the descriptions on the dimarzio website the PAF Joe might have that honky clonky bluesy sound.
