    Default Difference Between 'Lil neck models

    To someone who has tried them, what are the differences between the neck models of the Cool Rails, JB Jr, Lil 59 and Lil Screamin Demon? Of that group, I've only tried the Cool Rails neck, but they all seem to have similar specs.

    I would like to know as well. I just put a hot rails neck wired in parallel in my Carvin TL60T and it sounds pretty good to my surprise. Now I am wondering what the difference would be between that and something like a cool rails neck.

    I've tried the Hot Rails and Cool Rails neck pickups (both wired in series) and I found the Cool Rails unispiring (it was just kind of "flat" sounding to me). I tried a Dimarzio Chopper in the same guitar and thought it was great compared to the Cool Rails. The Hot Rails is better for high gain leads though (which is what I'm mostly using it for in my Jackson Soloist) and I think it splits very well too. I was just wondering how the other Rails sound. This is the last guitar I have that I can swap the pickups on, so it's inevitable that I'll try them out sooner or later if they actually sound significantly different than the Cool Rails. I suppose I should take a listen to the sound samples.
