I got a Les Paul with 85 & 81TW. Got em with the 85 in the bridge, the pushpull on the 81TW gives a nice sheen for clean tones.

That's what I was hoping to hear! Thank you.

If you want a splittable bridge pickup, the 89 is 85 esque, and the same size as an 85. The 81TW, etc are all thicker than a normal EMG.

Very true, I did see that they mentioned the pickups being thicker.
