    Re: NGD 2007 Epi SG

    I've gotten a set of used Probuckers for around $30 online. They're a great upgrade over the hideous 57CH/HOTCH set.

      Thanks for the info guys. I've heard good things about the Probuckers and thought about buying a set, but I'm trying to hold off on buying any more guitar related stuff right now (I've bought 2 guitars this year after telling the "powers that be" that I was done buying guitars for a while, lol)

      I plan on installing the Duncan-designed pickups this afternoon. I'm sure they'll be an upgrade over whats in it, and will hold me for a while at least.(that bug to modify and change it up always comes back eventually)

        As a regular Probucker user, if you find them cheap, go for them. They're very good.

          Installed the HB103b and HB102n this afternoon. Definitely an upgrade over the stock pickups. (which were actually both 57CH, I must've misread when i peeked under the pickguard)

              Sometimes the HB 103 has a hard time sounding great in a SG because of the brittle highs of the pup and thin body of the SG. I like the "Distortion" pup, but love it with an alnico 8 or A2.
