You want woody? Gibson 490, 498, 57.
Hmmm. Heard good things about the 57.

Keep in mind that woody sound largely depends on your cabinet, guitar & amp. Cabinet is a BIG part of it IMO. I like Gibson pickups a lot, but burstbuckers are my least favorite.

I think I'm covered there. It really helped mixing G12C's with T75's instead of all T75's. It was a positive step on the direction I'm going :)

Damn lots of pickups I haven't even heard of. Great! Thanks for all the input.

After research and a winner for neck, if it's still muddy, I'm definitely going with a hum sized P90. I'm like you Giga. Every neck humbucker I've had has been a bit muddy. PAF Classics weren't that bad but rest was all mud even on low gain settings.

I'm a big fan of the P90s in my LP. That's a decision I'm really happy I made.
