thick distortion

Re: thick distortion

Ah so you want a bridge pickup? I thought you meant neck humbucker in your first post.
Like marcel said: Thursday uses JB's and Teppei Uses a JB in his live axe (Gibson LP custom), his studio guitar (Gibson LP custom too). has Super Distortions in it.
Personally I don't think the '59/JB combo is the greatest as the '59 is rather bassy ant the JB quite on the bright side (because of the mids). The JB will give you thick distortion though.

Finch & The Used use EMG 81s. Thrice use JBs & Super Ds. Thursday use JBs, stock GIbbys & a Custom Shop Hot Rail 'bucker.

I think it's safe to say there isn't really a definitive screamo pickup. Just about any high output pup should do it.
