Re: the bridge sounds like sh*t
i did it exaclty like you all told me specially you scream (something) but still sounds bad man , and i dont think thats the sound of a dimarzio super distortion , even my other guitar with duncan desingned sounds very good great i would say , and some guy told me that the distortion would blew away the duncan designed , thats why i think somethings wrong. if im connecting it right what else can be ??

Re: the bridge sounds like sh*t
Rombola, sorry you are having such a hard time. Troubleshooting guitars is a pain even if you know what you are doing and learning on the fly can be very frustrating.
Try this. Connect the Dmz pickup directly to the output jack. the easiest way is to follow the hot lead from the tip terminal of the output jack and disconnect it from the pot or switch depending on the guitar. Connect the red wire from the Dmz to that wire. You have now bypassed the guitars electronics completely. If it still sounds horrid then you just don't like that pickup. If the tone improves then I will help you troubleshoot your wiring. Feel free to PM me if I dont get back to this thread.

"This sounds bad. What can I do?" isn't a great way to get the answers you want.
