Neck pickup in middle


Hey, since ive got some free time I was looking on 3bay and found something intresting.
Its an old Brian May single coil pickup made by dimarzio. however its a neck position and well. My Ibanez only has a single pickup space in the middle. Will the neck pickup sound good in the middle position? will it be overly muddy and mushy?

oh yeah. Were they even good pickups to begin with? haha. There hard to get info on so I dont know much about them.

Re: Neck pickup in middle


It'll be fine, the location of the pickup will have more effect onthe sound than whether it is designated for neck, middle or bridge. I've put "neck" pickups in the bridge, and "bridge" pickups in the neck. Fender single coils are ofter the same pickup for at least neck and middle if not all 3 positions.
