So, I have been sold on getting the Duncan Distortion. Since I play a mix of Heavy Metal from APC/Tool, Kyuss, Dredg Progressive type stuff, to sh*t that would make kids pee their pants (Dimmu Borgir, Zao, Norma Jean, Unearth, As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, Hatebreed, At The Gates, Bleeding Through, BLS to name most of 'em) I wanted to know what would be good for my neck pup. I want is to be pretty warm and smooth without that "so-much-mids that the note makes an "aww" sound when i play it" mid sound, not overly bassy (cuz its already gonna be in the rhythm(bass) pup postion) and can have all that plus maintain a nice/respectible distorted tone. Since I dont always play with distortion (just most of the time :evil: ) It should still sound nice with a tid-bit-o-chord playing and softer stuff. It would rule if it sounded good with the DD also.
I play a Schecter 006 Elite (as the name implies) and i am dying to get rid of the Dimarzio's I put in there. For those of you who don't know much about that guitar, its a pretty heavy guitar (weight wise), has nice natural smooth sustain and nice bass. (I suggest it to anyone who askes to buy one or check out some other models, Schecters rule!) Mahogony w/ figured maple and a rosewood fingerboard. 3-way switch selector, yadda yadda...
To get to the point, what would go nicely in the neck position after reading all that. I heard the Custom works well but its not too smooth and it didn't look like there were neck models. I heard mixed things on the Custom Custom, some people said it was smooth, others didn't. I heard the JB was very nice but nothing superiorly special. Make any other suggestions if u want but I trying to stick between those 3, but I definately want the duncan distortion. Or If you know somehting better like put the DD in the neck and maybe a custom in the bridge, let me know! :burnout: THANKS AND HELP ME OUT PLZ!!! (they are gonna be X-mas presents
)
fftopic: P.S. Just making sure, but the neck pup is the rythmn/top pup and the bridge pup is the treble/bottom pup, correct. I am just makin sure that i'm not confused! See YA!
