I understood he wants to put it in an esquire because that specific PU is not RWRP.
;-)
Well I actually have a set of nocasters with the RWRP Bridge PU in my Esquire, but I had to cut a hole in the pickguard to get that neck pickup in.
;-)

Is there a difference in the middle position? I tried it, comparing my AV52 with the Esquire sporting the nocasters. They sound different, as do the other positions, in the end, these are different guitars. better or worse? I really can't decide. Sound decent to me both. To really decide if RWRP "takes something away" you'd have to try the same pickups in the same guitar, play it, take the pickup apart, reverse the magnets, rewind it. but than it wouldn't be the same pickup, wouldn't it?
