Bridge Pickup

[zagatron1]

How many of you folks dig guitars with only a bridge pickup? Y'know, like a Les Paul Junior for example. Does it suit the type of music you play? I know I can't use one even though there are a lot of nice looking ones out there. Here's another example of one here:  http://www.themusiczoo.com/blog/2010/gibson-custom-shop-58-single-pickup-les-paul-giveaway/  Nice guitar, but I don't think I could use it, except to use it to get what I really want.  I gotta have a neck pickup too! But that's just me. Your thoughts?

Not me. I do use the bridge pickup most of the time on my Hagstrom Swede, but I would miss the neck pickup if I didn't have it.

I also trade off between the neck and bridge. The middle doesn't get as much use though.

I use the neck pickup more than the bridge, so I could get by with a neck only guitar better than bridge only.

If I had a guitar with ten pickups, I'm gonna take advantage of all of them bad boys! You can believe that!

When I'm playing rhythm for blues or pop, I'm using the neck pickup.  When I'm adding some rock tone, I use the bridge.  There is no way I could use a guitar that only has a single pickup.  I did find a video on youtube with Billy Gibbons using a Gibson LP with a bridge only pickup.  Cool looking goldtop.  Look up "Stop Breaking Down" on youtube.

for me it depends on which guitar i'm playing. i like the neck pickup on my 335 but the bridge on my single cut
