mavuser's post about the Les Paul Jr. with a neck pickup only reminded me of this question.
I have had a guitar with only a bridge pickup, and could get "close" neck pickup sounds with the Tone knob. I have had a guitar with a single pickup in the middle - and I could get "almost but not really" both bridge and neck sounds by moving my right hand position.
Anyone play a more "rockish" style with a neck pickup only? Can you get a "close" to bridge pickup sound? Seems like it would be more difficult to do. I know it wouldn't work well on let's say a big jazz archtop, but I'm thinking of guitars like a T-100, an M-65, etc.
Just pondering...
