Pickups

I’m one of the odd ones it appears; I like the LT bridge pickup. If I recall, the 594s had the same pickup in both positions, or at least I read that somewhere. Most setups have a hotter bridge pickup, so I can see why many want something with more oomph there. I like that sort of setup too, so I might put it down to my just not being as selective about it. I’d like to get a set of LTs to try in my HB, but they’ve been a bit rich for my experimenting pocketbook. I do enjoy reading different people’s take on the pickups, as it gives me a starting place on some I haven’t tried.
The 58/15 LT pickups I pulled from my 2016 594 both read exactly the same, 7.76k. As you mentioned this is a little odd as most pickup sets have a hotter bridge pickup. This makes me wonder how the pickups measured in a 59 LP. I wonder if this is a throwback to those guitars.
 
The More I Play The \m/ The More I Like Them. I Am Not Much Of A Fan Of The LT Stuff Unless I Am Not Playing The Heavies.
