DiMarzio Evolution Bridge in R9

[Classic 59]

Has anyone ever tried an Evolution pickup in their R9?

I have been thinking of trying it myself. Wanted to get some feedback before I took the plunge. Crazy idea or...

Thanks!

I don't have that fancy of a LP. I have a few older gibson studios. I can say that it wasn't that great. I think there are more ideal options. Right now in my main LP I have an 80's DiMarzio PAF, and that is my favorite atm. Obviously that is much different than an evo.

What amps/tones do you have/seeking.

I have only tried the Evolution in an old RG570. I think that pickup prefers basswood. Sounded great in there. Not sure how it would hold up in a thick hog body with maple cap. Worth a shot though!

If you want some heat, the Aldrich works well

The Evolution pairs great with mahogany guitars IMO.
