Neck and Bridge Mississippi Queen
« on: July 17, 2008, 09:33:09 PM »
So i tried my neck Mississippi queen in the bridge position of another guitar today, and i like it!
From this reference point, how different would the intended bridge position Mississippi sound like?

The Mississippi Queen Bridge has an Alnico 5 magnet where as the neck has an Alnico 4 magnet so you would get more power from it, more low end, fatter tone and louder due to the stronger magnet.

If its pretty much the same wind, how difficult would it be for me to change the magnet?
I've done it a few times with a humbucker but never anything single coil.
