Duncan 7-String suggestions for RG7621

[daveyisgreat]

Hey everyone, I'd like to switch out the stock Dimarzios in my RG7621 for Duncans. I play straight ahead hard rock, some jazz fusion/prog fusion, and power pop. Anyone have any experience with the Full Shred 7s in a basswood bodied 7-string? Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Honestly, the Full Shred 7 would probably be the first thing I recommended to you because they're so articulate, but a 59/Custom Hybrid would also be a good choice if you wanted a slightly more vintage voicing.

Sweet! I was leaning towards the Full Shred 7s! I don't shred but dang if the name doesn't make me want to try!

Thanks! And congrats on the new gig as a Seymour Duncan Customer Service Guru!

How about a Pegasus/Sentient set?

I have an Invader/Sentient set on the way. I'll let you know what they're like when I install them.

I'm using an SD Liberator with it, I intend to experiment a little!

Check before you buy but many of the new Ibbys are routed with routs that are very tight so tight only dimarzios with triangular feet will fit inside them. Unless you are willing to grind the feet on SD's or rout you might consider buying dmz also.

My RG2570z 6 string was like this when fitting the EMGs! I had to ground the feet on them too!
