Greetings everyone,
I'm new here, and it's my first post here.
I'm looking for a pickup replacement for my guitar.
Right now it has the stock pups which are ceramic both neck and bridge position.
It's built with a maple neck thorugh construction with Alder wings,
it's a short scale neck with 24 frets and liscensed Floyd Rose,
and it's a two Ceramic Humbuckers configuration with a single 3 way switch, and it's a rosewood fretboard.
My style is more Hard Rock, 80's metal and prog rock as well.
I will be replacing both pups, and I'm looking for something to make more sound posibilities.
I've decided that I'm disatisfied with the Neck pup in particular.
It sounds flat and doesn't respond to dynamics and picking.
I'd like to have more Clean sounds by making some Coil splitting to get more Scooped sound in the middle position, and maybe split both pups.
I would like to get a warmer pickup for neck position, more sensitive, responsive, and not too Treblish tone.
I'm pretty okay with the Bridge pup as it is now as far as sounds goes.
It's bright, crunchy, more responsive and has enough output, but can't be split because it has 2 wires.
I'm still considering many options and Seymour Duncan is one of these options, I'd like to hear your opinion for a suggested setup.
Thank you very much,
BetaCAM.
p.s. this is my setup:
two tonebone pedals: hot british and classic, Ibanez Chorus CS9, DD3 delay straight to my Peavey Classic 30 tube combo.
