  • Favorite Neck Pup for METAL?

    I've been considering of coupling a SH-6b with the SH-6n or possibly a SH-1n. I'm familiar with the 59 in the neck so if you could make comparisons to the tone structure of the SH-1, that would be excellent. Feel free to recommend a different model, just elaborate on your recommendation and tell me why you believe it's the best for metal. Thanks a lot guys.

    This should go into a Les Paul.

    I really like a JB in the neck for metal, although the SH-6n is no slouch.

          I would say throw another DD in there, it's thrasy, plenty of crunch, and it matches with the DD in the bridge, output wise.
          • EBMM JPX BFR (Crunch Lab/Liquifire)
          • Schecter C-1 Classic (Custom8/Jazz)
          • Mayones Duvell 7 Standard (Instrumental SFTY-3/Decomp)
          • G&L Tribute Comanche
          • Godin Stadium 59 (Custom Cajun/'59)
          • Horizon Precision Drive --> Fulltone FB3/FD 2 --> Crybaby From Hell (Fasel) --> Boss BF-2 --> CH-1 --> TC Flashback X4
          • Mesa/Boogie Mark IV-B (SED =C= 6L6) + EarCandy BuzzBomb 2x12 (V30/C90)

            DD-n. Didn't care for it matched with the DD-b. But with a JB in the bridge it did the trick. Check out www.Autumnsend.com Their lead guitarist/vocalist uses that combp.

              How does that sound in the neck...I know I didn't like the looseness of the bridge model.

                What turned you off about the bridge model?

                  It has really nice clarity, but it was too aggressive for what I like to play. The JB in the neck actually sounds warm, very bluesy. And it matched well with a Custom in the bridge.

                    Thanks for clearing that up, EL_WHOPPO. I like my music aggressive!
