There was a member who proudly said that with the right gear a Riff Raff will do almost anything . And I tend to agree with that :) I don't personally own that pickup but did a lot of research . It's a low output if that interests you but has some bite and that let's call it vintage stingy top end . It should fit in the studio just fine and it's versatile :)
It;s the closest to a burstbucker from Gibson . But a lot of folks assured me it's better ! I stumbled across a very interesting video about the burstbuckers and Lp style guitar . Take a listen . and yes , that tone is achievable with BK pickups :)

I almost went for this combo for classic rock , rock-blues and hard .....I don't know what change my mind but I will sure try the RR mule combo .
An emerald will be a step forward is you think the RR is not hot enough. Ask if you need more info on this one....i won't write you a novel :)
Hope that helps :)
