Hi! I've just bought an Epiphone Les paul Gothic (cos I couldnt afford a Gibson), and like the reviewers at www.harmony-central.com I think it's a great guitar to play on, but that the pickups are rubbish, and that's why I'm here =).
The tonewizard told me that a JB or custom would work in the bridge, but judging from the audiosamples I like the Duncan Distortion much better. For the neck I don't really know, it recomended either the '59 or jazz and I think they sounds pretty much the same. My question is; will a Duncan distortion "work" in my guitar? And which neck pickup would be a good complement to it? I play stuff like guns and roses --> Iron maiden --> In flames.
Btw, it's Mahogny body and neck, alder top and rosewood fingerboard (though it's supposed to be ebony), set neck and no tremolo.
