I've been using an sh-5 for a while until my friend brought his guitar with a full shred (bridge) to the studio. I recorded a few riffs with it and promptly wanted to eat the sh-5. It took me a while to decide on a pickup and being a Jeff Waters fan I chose the sh-5. The full shred is exacly what I've been looking for - super articulate, handles tons of gain, etc. Now here's the problem. I also play 7 string guitar and am going to be recording a full length with 6 of the songs being for 7 string. Is there a 7 string pickup that is close to the full shred (duncan, dimarzio - doesn't matter) or can one be modified to full shred specs?

I'm sure the Custom Shop can build a 7 string Shred.

One of the local shops has had a CS Demon 7 string for a few years, so there should be no problem with the Full Shred.

Tell me how that goes.. I was ready to pull the trigger on a CS 7 full shred for a while now, but after I heard about the blackouts coming out in 7 sized housings I was wanting to go that route instead.

$160 plus shipping, about a 4 week wait. They got back to me the next business day to place the order. Can't wait for mine!

Wow, that's great service and great price! When I heard 'custom shop can make one' I guessed it would be hundreds of $ - it's great to know this option exists at a reasonable price.
:thanks:

Awesome. The Full Shred is my favorite passive pickup for both positions and the
Blackouts are my favorite pickups overall. Either one will be a killer choice since both are super articulate and powerful. The Blackouts are of course, more extreme tonewise but the FS is not far behind and it's clearer and more articulate. Like I said, either one will be a right choice.
