Not that anyone's done this to know, but what do you think a neck 59 in the bridge position would sound like, vs a regular bridge 59? I'm trying to decide if it's worth the trouble to find out.
 
It will sound slightly brighter and a bit weaker than the bridge model.
 
..... I may be wrong, but the string spacing is often just slightly narrower for a neck pickup. So you'll lose a little there as well. Seymour doesn't give out measurements, but 52mm is common for a bridge pickup, and 50mm for a neck pickup. Not a huge difference, but something to think about.
