    see I agree on the A2P I just always find that although warm the PG is kinda a raw, edgy pickup too. It's warm but it's got hair on it.

    When I think of warm/fat I just kinda instantly think A2P, Antiquity, Seth Lover kinda territory depending on the guitar/player of course.

    I've always went with the 59n to give warm, fat tones from the neck position.

    I agree . . . i have an A2P set in my SG, and to my ears it is much fatter than any Les Paul Studio i have ever heard, even though an LP had more wood/body to it than an SG.

    Even though the Duncan I recommended is the Slash A2P my ultimate recommendation is the Black Dog by Bare Knuckle. Amazing neck pickup.

    I agree with this. very nice tone. I like the 59n with A4 better when overdriven but I like the overall tone of the 59 A2 better. the regular 59 with A5 is definitely fat.

    Uh, actual neck pickups that are warm/fat are the Breed, Air Norton, Liquifire, A2P, and DDn, but the Fred, PGb, and JB all work really well too, and I'm soon gonna try an A4 Bro. I'm sure that's gonna be fat and warm.
