I was roaming through the pickups forum a bit earlier, and I saw something about Tim saying he could use a ceramic magnet when making a pig 90. It sounds very interesting, has anyone tried it?

Hello all,
So, a few months back, I bought an overwound mississippi queen for my strat. For lack of better words, it's perfect. The heavy crunch is great, the light crunch is like glass, and sustain and palm muting is like no other. However, with curiosity getting the better of me, I'm contemplating ordering another one and moving the bridge queen to the neck. I also want to try series wiring. My current queen is braided two, would I be able to try series with that or would I need a four-connector?
What kind of music do you play??

I'm all over the place. My current inspiration is Muse, and a little bit of Franz Ferdinand. However, I'm way more concerned about finding a pickup that I like than one that matches a particular sound, if that makes any sense. I'm ordering an MQ-sized pig-90, with cap head allen bolts and either a nickel or raw nickel cover. I want it to contrast the black queen that I already have. I have a pic, sorry, it's body only though.
