Re: pickups for my sz320
Hey waix!
I had a SZ720 and tried many pups in there. Of course, it's a matter of taste, but here's what I tried with comments:
1) Custom / PG: My favorite. People ***** about ceramic, yet your ears will like it.
2) CC / PG: Creamier, but I hate the spongy base of the CC. Can be your deal if you really look for a creamy yet biting set.
3) C5 / PG: Forget it, the C5 is OK for rhythm but sterile for lead. This is personal of course.
4) 59 set: Great bridge, hate the 59 neck... too bassy.
I also tried a DMZ Super Distortion (great but a little too much) and Fred (great in both B and N - one of my fave DMZ).
There, if I still had the guitar, I'd probably go for a Custom/PG or, for a little more vintage sound, a 59b/PGn.
Hope this was more helpful than confusingLast edited by Sly_D; 12-30-2004, 04:32 PM.

But since you are going to the classic rock tone I think a custom is worth a try a JB might be a little over the top on output.

Re: pickups for my sz320
Sly_D used to have one of those, I think... Maybe it was a higher model I forgot.
I remember he tried quite a few different pups in there, a c-5/PG neck set was one of them...
I'll PM him for you
