    Distortion matched set

    Has anyone played this set ? I'm thinking of it but I sometimes play clean (rare) .Do these clean up at all? I was thinking more of the jazz neck instead but I'd get a distortion neck if it could clean up somewhat. Thanks

    Frank Marino Tone

    Is there any duncan pups that can get close to this tone? The live cd I;m talking about and the lead tone. I just rediscovered Frank after years of not listening and always liked his tone.

    Torn between 59 jazz and full shred

    Hey guys its been a while since I've been here. Mainly cause I've been using emgs in my guitars. I have an Engl Fireball(hi gain) and I'm getting a Jackson with jb and 59. I''m going to swap out the jb for a dd but don't know what neck pup to put in. I'm thinking of leaving the 59 cause I don't...

    How versatile is the distortion and dimebucker

    What kinds of music can be played with these 2 pickups? Do either clean up better then the other ? Is 1 more extreme and less controllable? I'm leaning towards the dime I think I need a little more front end slam then the dd can offer but will I sacrifice being 1 dimensional sounding? Thanks

    2 dimebuckers 1 axe

    Anybody have 2 of these in 1 axe? I was thinking it certainly would look good with the 2 blade pu but how would they sound? Maybe you could sink the neck pu in and raise the bridge so that the tone wouldn't be identical. Any thoughts?

    dimebucker or distortion for judas priest

    I'm getting into the tone of the screaming for vengeance and painkiller cd's. Which would do better for that? I'm keeping the 59 neck cause I rarely use the neck pu.

    Are the x2n and sh6 similar?

    I was checking out the specs on both and they are close. Same magnet (ceramic) and similar voicings . Actually according to the tone charts the sh6 seems more trebly. Anyone use both or have played both in the bridge positions at 1 time? Neck will stay 59 on this axe as its not going to be used...

    new bridge pu invader or distortion

    Hey new guy here . I have an emg 81 85 in 1 guitar and I'm putting a full shred in the neck of my second guitar cause the 85 ,the jb and the 59 are all too muddy for me. Anyway I'm thinking invader would be a nice match with the full shred as they seem to balance nicely.I will keep it low and...
