I prefer my neck pick up for the more aggressive & rocker solos. I like how Malmsteen use to change during the same solo from one pick up to the other one to get different sounds.

Depends, neck is smoother, fits best for some leads. Though I use bridge most of the time.

Alexi Laiho from COB doesn't even have a neck pickup and he sweeps, taps, does everything. He gets a much more rocking aggressive tone
All bridge: On the other hand you can get a lot more rounder smoother, less aggressive sound with the neck pickup All neck: -------------------- Visit my:

I rarely ever use the bridge pickup...then again, I mostly play metal or punk rock stuff, so the neck pick up seems to be the natural choice for me.

I like the warmer sound, bridge pickup is in use for riffing parts, but for the solo sections I like a combination of both hambuckers.
