Hi everybody!
I´m wondering what pick-up would be a good choice for me, considering I tune down to B. Musicwise it´s a bit like Crowbar mixed with Skinlab, Tool and Machine Head

My guitar is a Jackson KVX10 (alder body, two humbuckers, string-thru)
I play with lots of distortion and basically only rhytm, no leads to talk about...

I was considering the Dimebucker, but I´d like some more suggestions!

C-ya!

Hi and welcome to the forum!
A dimebucker would be nice, also would a JB since you're tuned in B... A custom is also a winner in a lot of situations...The custom would have a tighter low-end while the JB would have plenty of harmonics... Both great choices...Robert, one of the administrators, has a JB in an Ibanez in dropped C tuning, it's supposed to sound just great! I would probably go for the JB myself... good luck!

welcome to the boards! your gonna love it here...


anyway, i would suggest a customcustom. its got great bite and low end, and i think would sound great tuned to b. the jb would also work great as well.

Thanks guys!

Anymore suggestions?

I think I´m going for either the Dime or the JB.....

Later!

I have a Jackson KVX10 & have a SH-5 Custom in the bridge which I REALLY like. It's thick & full & crunchy yet clear & powerful. I tried the Distortion but found it lacked bottom end & was too thin sounding for my likings. :headbang:

Hmmmmm, wouldn´t the Invader be too "muddy" when tuning low? BUt on the other hand Doyle from Misfits used it (I think) so..... well. I wish I could try out all the different suggestions IRL! :32:

That's what I would've thought.. a little muddy... same for the CC in my opinion, not enough highs for dropped tuning, altho I might be wrong...

Well, I´ve seen that Seymour Duncan make Invaders for sevenstrings...... It should work with a low B then, won´t it?
