I have an old Ibanez superstrat with a DD in the bridge spot. It's currently set up with a Warmoth baritone conversion neck but I've also used it with the regular 25 1/2 neck. In this guitar the pickup is really bright and doesn't seem to have a lot of body. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I had a tech assemble a new pickguard and the way he set it up, the tone control doesn't affect the bridge pickup (like on a Strat). Maybe the fact that it's not running through a tone pot is the problem.
