I'll vote for the duncan distortion just because it's so raunchy.

I had one, but I didn't really dig it. I ended up going with a SH-13 and I havent looked back!

I voted Dimarzio Super Distortion, as it's the only one that I have experience with (well it's a New 7, which according to Dimarzio is basically a 7 String Super Distortion)

It's very fat & loud, typical dist type pickup, much better than the stock Ibanez pu's!!! Very Metal :saeek:

i myself voted for the Dimarzio SD... Dimarzio seems to have more "oomph" than its Duncan counterpart...
the Invader of course, i found too muddy... even in an alder/maple jackson kelly. it's like sticking cotton inside your guitar... hehehehe.

the Duncan Distortion i found "shrill" but very clear and articulate... but lacked the low end that i'd want.

the 500T was well.... FUZZY! lol.

I vote for the Invader, but you don't have it listed as an option
