Humbucking 360?

I'm just curious to see if anybody has put a Ric humbucker in their 360. Anyone?

I put HBs in my 360 about a year ago. Since then, my 1997 Vintage Reissue probably feels very neglected.

You put them in both positions? Can I ask for an approximation of the sound? What would you say they most compare to in terms of the sound? I'm intrigued...

I was thinking of doing the same. Come on RC, or anyone that knows, what does a 360 sound like with the humbuckers?

The 380L has humbuckers, but being made of different wood, it should sound a bit different from a 360 with HBs.

I would best describe the HB's sound as being a much warmer jangle than a toaster or hi-gain. I do have the HBs in both positions.

So I assume the humbuckers darken the sound a bit? A little less treble would be good in my case...I play through a Hiwatt which tends to be on the bright side. Anyone else have any info?

How do the buckers go for overdriven sound?

Bump. Would like more info if anybody has some. Thanks

Where do you get Ric HB's, anyway ?
