      I've got a pair of Evolutions in my Nebula WR1. Better in tone than the JB IMO, tho I imagine others may disagree.

          Yes, it should. I got one in my cheapo Kelly and in one of my Ibanez. Not my fav PU but sounds good in the neck position of these 2 guitars.

              I don't mind it in the bridge. Are you looking for a brighter or darker tone?

              Please define "better tone".
              I like EL34s.

                    What are the best all around pickups (not active) for basswood body ?

                    I have an EMG81 in my BW sounds awesome... but before this it had a Dimarzio DP100 and it was way way too dark... no bright signing in it at all.

                    Yippie 100 posts!!!

                        I'm wondering why the evolution makes you wander...

                          Best pickups for a basswood guitar are the ones that sound best to you in it. I had great success with a Duncan Distortion in one. You might do better with a 59 or Custom. Depends on you.

                            IN one of my Ibanez (basswood), I got a Dimarzio Evolution in the neck and a TonZone in the bridge. Really like both PUs.

                            In my MusicMan JP6 (basswood too), the Dimarzio LiquiFire in the neck is very nice too, but not too sure yet about the Crunch Lab in the bridge. To my ears it doesn't have the "growl" the ToneZone give me. But YMMV.
