In my 2012 TDPRI challenge build I used a Gibson mini hum in the neck with an OC Duff bridge (flatpole or plankster), 250k pots and a .047 cap... no problems.
The middle position is out of phase and a bit stratty, I like a variety of sounds from a guitar.
This clip is through a 1949 deluxe, no effects, just a cord.
