So I bought those D-Activators , thinking that I could tweek them to make them close to my Jazz and Demon ( 6 strings alnico 8)
but they are modern design with big screws , strange glue , plastic , etc .

Then now I am leaning towards the Full Shred set , as they are highly tweekable with the two screw coils , and I will put alnico 8 mags in them .
What do you think guys ?
I want high definition , clean pick attack , full EQ with bite on top .

Are you looking to tweak for the sake of tweaking?

If not, have you not had success finding any manufacturers production pickup that works for you?

Darth , I don't tweak for the sake of it .
I do it because I've never found the stock pickup that was ideal , and I tried many ...
So the closest to perfect are the Demon and Jazz 8 in my 6 strings .
I think the Full Shreds will do the job as the FS neck is a variation of the Jazz ,
and the Demon could put more wire turns so the FS bridge could work .
I will report on my experience as soon as it's done .
Cheers mate

The stock Full Shreds may work for you, but it is not a big deal to switch the magnets out. I think they are so clear and high-endy, you might need an A8 for some tightness in the lows. But give em a try stock, first.

Try a Arcane Mr Scary.

I'm not a fan of it for my goals. But if you can imagine an overwound Demon 8, you're pretty much there.

If you find one used in eBay, I'd not pay more than $90-100 for it, if I were feeling generous.

The Arcane looks interesting , but I doubt they do it for 7 strings .
And I like the idea of two screw coils , for fine tuning with different kind of screws .
Yes Mincer I will try both FS stock for my knowledge !
