Market research -> would you be interested in a high output humbucker that taps into a PAF?

That's exactly what a Duncan '59 (8K, A5) and Custom Custom (14K, A2) are!

Two of my favourite pickups, although I already see you don't like the '59...

I generally don't like A2 on lower-wound pickups, they usually sound thin to me. A5 is fine on higher-wound ones but I particularly like the thicker softer sound of the CC.

I really didn't like the CC despite the glowing reviews it had on release. It sounded much better with an A4 magnet. It actually made me believe that I didn't like A2 magnet pickups until I got a 60's tribute SG that has a Burstbucker 2 in the bridge which sounds stupendously good.
