I have a Steves Special in the bridge of my JPM 100 petrucci axe but to be honest, I find it quite loose / boomy and not very expressive . I love the 3D super defined dirty chords (thanks to the hybrid coils) and it works really well with my Mesa Petrucci Graphic EQ preamps but it just seems to lack punch & character.
I'm considering trying the Dimarzio Transition (also with hybrid coils like the SS but way less drastic and scooped) , but also the Duncan Custom grabs my fancy.
Any thoughts or comparisons on the above pickups ? I play 80s rock, hair metal, prog stuff, instrumental lead and shred.
