Exactly, you can use it anywhere you want. I think it would be too bright in the bridge for my needs, but board member VitaminG does use a Super 2 in the bridge of one of his guitars and says it's pretty good.

For example... Lots of guys like to use an EMG 85 in the bridge position as well... it's "supposed" to be a neck pup, but sounds killer in the bridge position.
Same goes for the 81... lots of guys will drop them into the neck spot... me included.
It's all about the sound YOU want to achieve.

I love the Super III pickup in just about everything I have tried it in. My first experience with it was my first Fender HM which these come standard in. Have bough several since then... HM's AND Super III's!!!! I am curious to try a Super II in the neck.
If Toejam's Super II was regular spaced I'd be all over it.

Do you have pics of an F-spaced pickup in the neck to see how far the poles are outside the strings? I am a stickler about those kinda things... I know, I know, the sound won't matter much but the visual aspect is what ruins it for me. I am one of those on the bandwagon of making sure I get F-spaced pickups in all my Gibson guitars as they take trem-spacing to line up better than standard spaced.

I can take a pic of my Carvin, but now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure those are standard spacing. I don't have any other guitars with Super Distortions at the moment. The black Super 2 I've got laying around is definitely F-spaced. I'll see if I can line it up with the ones in the Carvin and see if I can notice the difference.I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

Great tone and smooth mids.
Has a nice growl to it.
Go with a TZ or Super 2 if you want something with a bit more high end bite to it.Tone is like Art: Your opinion is valid. Listen, learn, have fun, draw your own conclusions.
