SD Sh8 Invader and DM ToneZone...

[Metal Soul]

I've lístened to some songs of Patrick Rondat, many songs of John Petrucci and i 'm very impressed with the sound of them. It's very sweet in solo phrases but it has very punchy bass response when they play palm muted note! I saw they used DM ToneZone (in their Website) and in my opinion, it's a awesome pickup!

But when i read some information about an Invader, i saw it's nice, too.
And, what's the difference bettween these 2 awesome pick-ups?
Thank you!

The TZ is a really cool sounding pup, because it has really fat lows (to the point that some may consider it too "muddy" yet has a crisp high end for definition. The Invader does not have the crisp high end for definition. Currently, Petrucci is using the Dimarzio D-Sonic and older stuff was a Dimarzio Steve's Special.
