Of course it would, it can depend on the style of the music your into. For example if you play a lot of heavy stuff and/or like to use a lot if drive or manily drive, than HH is great way to go. Also, HSH is a good combo for versatiliy, since you can use the single pickup in the middle for cleans, country, blues even jazzy stuff. Neck single can be great for rhythm and some nice warm dirty riffing too, and bridge humbucker can be used for soloing quite often in any style. My suggesiton is to put hum in the bridge always.

All my guitars have 2 Humbuckers and this works perfectly fine for rhythm AND lead, and of course there is always the option to split a humbucker if you want a singlecoil sound with such a guitar. But the general choice of what pickup you should go for seriously depends of what style of music you want to play and what guitar you are using.

An active pickup needs a battery, which is placed inside your guitar, a good example would be EMG pickups. The nice thing about active pickups is the fact that you can use very long cables without losing your sound, on the other hand some people say that they sound cold compared to passive pickups (something that I seriously disagree with, I use EMG pickups in many of my guitars and I love the sound). I contrast to active pickups passive ones don't need any batteries.

I think that depends on the quality of the wireless system itself. Didn't use wireless systems but I guess on more expensive models there are no signal loss.

Not sure,I don't think type of pickup has anything to do with wireless. I'd add one thing only. I've had many guitars with H in neck,splited of course. But you just can't get the same result with splited H as with regular S. Still it's fully up to you,perhaps you'll like splitted H more. -------------------- Youtube
