EBMM Steve Morse Standard – suggestions for replacing slanted neck single coil pickup
Hey guys! Looking for some suggestions for a replacement pickup for the slanted neck single coil on my Morse Standard. I upgraded the pots to 500K, and I’m digging the sound of everything better right now, except the neck single. It’s just too weak sounding compared to the others.
I replaced it with a Dimarzio Fast Track 1, but it sounds too dull. Looking for something that hits harder but is nice and bright, but I know that higher output singles usually end up having more high end roll off.
Currently looking at a Dimarzio Area 67, FS-1 or Red Velvet. Also looking at the Suhr V70.
Any other suggestions for something bright, punchy, but also loud for this particular position? It’s literally half way between a neck position and a middle position, so getting the voicing and output right is tricky.
