The sound of a Seth Lover Bridge

Hello all,

I've just had a Seth necker installed on my Ibanez Artcore 335 clone and like it so far. The bridge pup is still stock and contemplating a replacement.

So a Seth bridge comes to mind? I like a pup that's able to handle ska, reggae 'cluck cluck' clean sounds and nice crunch ala Thin Lizzy, Darkness, AC DC, rockabilly palm muting stuff. Basically on the fatter and grittier side of things. I realise that an Alnico V might be actually what I need.

Any suggestions? I'm afraid the Seth bridge might be too thin and not ballsy enough for my needs. Thanks.

It also might be too microphonic as it's not wax potted. You should try your neck p/u at the settings that you'd use for the bridge p/u before buying.

you might like a SD '59 there for the classic rock tone. The Fralin humbucker is mighty tasty too.

I've been reading good things about the WCR line. I would love to hear the Betts wind, but they're really pricey.
