Tell me about the DiMarzio Air Norton, please.

You feel the Evo has too much low end?! What kind of weird guitar do i have that I find the Evo doesn't have low end, at all, and is more like a slightly beefed up singlecoil? Yes the pickup is fine, etc etc. It just doesn't sound fat or thick, at all.

It's a Les Paul.

I don't get the single coil vibe, personally. I know it's an asymmetrical wind, but I actually liked the Evo Neck in this guitar better than the Distortion Neck because it's smoother and not as attacky. I hate it when neck pickups get too attacky like the Jazz or the PAF Pro.

I thought the Vai pickup that's supposed to have the single coil vibe is the Gravity Storm Neck? I know DiMarzio descriptions and EQ charts are all over the place on their site (like where they hell do they get the idea that the Dominion is a has a big/thick low-end?), but they describe the Evo Neck as "fat, loud, and punchy", and I kind of agree.

Trem.

I have a full shred in the bridge of my Charvel DK24FR, and I'm really not loving it. Much too polite for my liking, it has a smoothness that I can't dial out. Might swap it for a JB, a pup I had zero interest in until I was gifted a Jackson Dinky with a JB in the bridge and I was in tone heaven.

Mine is trans coloured as well. The solid ones are alder or Basswood, I forgot which one.

I just got done playing some Thrasg Metal (Metallica, Megadeth etc.) with my 750, and it is positively one of my best playing and sounding guitars. The full shred was designed for LP style guitars - short scale, set neck, mahogany body, fixed trem and rosewood fretboard. "Warm" guitars. I could see it not being the best in the DK24FR.

Rex_Rocker, the Full Shred set might be a good fit in your LP if you decide you want something else. The Full Shred neck is a Jazz with allen pole pieces to clean up the bass, I have been told.

Oh, but I don't want to go to those extremes, LOL. I'm aware the FS-N is pretty much a brighter, more attacky Jazz. But I hate the Jazz being so attacky itself. I want something tighter in the neck, but still smooth.

I remember once I had a PAF Pro in the neck with something else in the bridge. I think it was a Dominion. I hated that combo since I hated how the neck position was actually the brighter of the two, LOL.
