question about selection

[pineyhillsmusic]

Ok,
I am a new Dean Guitars dealer and I just got my first shipment in. The 79 series have "decent" stock pickups, but they tend to get a little muddy. I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with these guitar and upgrading to Duncans. I am a Dimarzio dealer too, so you can give that preference too, but I sell 100 to 1 Duncans to Dimarzio so, I dont stock anything other than duncans.

I have a V, Z, and a ML...

Also I got a Hardtail Select in, and the pups in it are the exact opposite. they are almost tinny sounding, like a set of 59s gone wrong. Anyone have any experience with these?

I will be happy to post guitar porn if you want

Re: question about selection

honestly i havent played a new dean other than a few usa hardtails which had duncans and sounded pretty sweet so im not sure what to tell ya on the 79 series.

if the hardtail is thin, id go with a set pf aph buckers for a warm vintagey sound

Re: question about selection

thank you...
I just dont have any experience with the guitars to offer advice on someone buying it and upgrading the pups
