Title: Hotter bridge pickup for Mothers Milk Set
Post by: everton_fc on December 23, 2009, 09:04:42 AM

Hi - I'm looking into a Mothers Milk neck and middle set but I'm curious about the bridge pickup.

I'm really wanting something that rocks out for solos, nice and full sounding but not to clash too much against the Mothers Milks.

Is the normal Mothers Milk bridge pickup suitable or anyone got any good alternative bridge suggestions?

Using a '79 strat,

Thanks

how about adding a baseplate to it?

mmmm not come across the baseplate thing before. What does it do? How does it differ from a "standard" set of pups?

Thanks

Think of a tele bridge (which do have a baseplate).

I think the stock MM set has a hotter bridge for just that occasion.
