Opinions on using a Seymour Duncan SSL1 in the neck position of a Strat for slide playing.

A sweet tone for Open G and standard tuning for slide is the goal.

I always found with enough compression and the right kind of OD, any pup can be good for slide.

The Slide Rig is an expensive but extremely useful tool for getting great slide tones.
It's a very good quality dual processing box with two cascading compression circuits.

Have fun!

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

Oops.
I guess that version has been discontinued.
Here's the current model.

New Slide Rig
