Combining Modern Humbuckers w/vintage single coils

[musicman_72751]

I play a really wide range of music and record a really eclectic variety also, so I was wondering if by combining say a Miracle Man Ceramic in bridge with say 2 "53 slab single or 2 "64 veneer singles would be a good combo. Appreciate the response and info. Thanks.

I forgot to add the guitar spec: Alder body, 25.5 scale, Rosewood fingerboard, Bolt-on neck, once again thanks for the info.

I think you get quite a volumedifference and if you want to split the Miracle Man with the middle singlecoil, the MM-coil will overpower the vintage singlecoil. Everything is possible though, it's just not the obvious combo.

Thanks for the input. Thought about it and realized that you were right in the volume difference. So, Probably go with Irish Tours instead. Thanks.

I think you should be careful with the MM in alder/bolt-on. Highs could be a bit too much. Anyway if you want to pair such a hot bridgepickup with single coils, you might want too look at the Trilogy Suites. Volumewise, they would match better. Should it be vintage, I'd go minimal for the Slowhands. Just my idea.

I pair a Miracle Man with a single coil and had the problem that even a medium to high output single coil couldn't keep up with the MM's output. I would strongly recommend you go with the typically suggested pairing to avoid disappointment.

Anyway, for the bridge I'd look first at Nailbomb (alnico or the brighter and tighter ceramic), Holy Diver or Blackhawk.
