The 81 has a bite too much bite for me in the bridge position. I realized that when I switched it up with my 85. I couldn't be more happy with the bridge pickup. I'm gonna be picking up an SLSMG soon too. I'm thinking maybe two 85's. Maybe I'll get it with a 60 though, I'm not sure, I might do that just to have all three, then I can swap them whenever I want. They are easy as hell to swap, just a 3 prong plug connector so you can eliminate one of your choices.

I am firm 85 in the bridge fan, never liked the 81 in the bridge, too flat, the 85 is massive and the low mids are crushing. Jack.

I just received my guitar, a 750xl with a 81 in the bridge and a 60 in the neck... I am not yet shure what to do with it, but possibly I am going passive again. I don't know for certain yet, but I mis something. it is metal all the way, which is a good thing, but a little too metal to my liking.
