    Put an Alnico 2 magnet in your 59n and see if that doesn't do the trick for you.

    When I heard the example tone on youtube, I immediately thought :

    "Man, this sounds just like a Dimarzio Air Norton I once had"

    I'm using a '78n and it's better (for me) than any other neck pickup I've tried.
