    EMG SPC or RPC w/ Fishmans or Blackouts?

    Pretty straightforward question. Has anyone tried any of these EMG tone controls with Fishman Fluence or Seymour Duncan Blackouts? Is it even possible? I’m also curious about the EXG, AB/220, or VLPF. Ideally I’d like to replace the master tone control in one of my guitars, probably with the...

    NGD: Unexpected Long Boi

    Long story short, after settling on a JPX7 as my main seven string I decided I needed to add another baritone to the collection. I tried a few different guitars over the past few years including an LTD Black Metal, Schecter KM II & III and Mach 7’s, etc. I had always been interested in Agiles...

    Ibanez RG Pickup Opinions Wanted.

    Hey all, I have a lower tier Ibanez RG2EX2, it's a cheaper RG, think it was a GC exclusive years back. Anyways, I've owned about a dozen guitars over the years, and this one plays amazing, and I love it. It's my #1, even though I have way "Nicer" guitars. So, question is, the stock pups...

    57-8/66-8 to Seymour Duncan Blackout pickup swap?

    I have a Hellraiser C-8 Hybrid that I love dearly. The emgs in it are good pickups, more dynamic than the other emgs I've played but I'd like a more full and pronounced low end that I think Blackouts would give me. I know the Blackouts are bigger than the passive sized emgs and I will need some...

    B.C. Rich NJ Warlock?

    I'm looking for a guitar with a 24.75 scale length for a fatter sludgier sound and a floyd. I plan on getting a C standard setup with 12-60 strings for a starting point. This guitar seems to have everything I'm looking for. It has a neckthrough mahogany body/neck, a floyd 1000 series (which I...

    NGD: Technically my first 7

    Traded a BC Rich Mockingbird that was just sitting in my rack gathering dust for this sweet Jackson JS22-7 with Seymour Duncan Blackouts. It's a little flawed(nut was cut way too deep and might need a little fretwork) but those are easy fixes. Was actually going to wait until I got it to perfect...

    Which One would you choose, Tonewood or Pickups?

    Okay, so I have been GASing for Schecter Solo II lately. My choice is down to Schecter BlackJack ATX solo II vs Schecter Platinum Solo II. They both have similar features. But two features that set them apart are the tone wood and pickups. Blackjack ATX has Swamp-ash wood and duncan Blackouts...

    NGD Schecter SLS Blackjack C-1

    Hi all, since last February I was supposed to be saving some money due to increased family obligations. So my budget was severely decreased and I was only able to drool over guitars and NGD's here. It seems though that this didn't stop me from making two NGD's with cheaper guitars, a Jackson...

    Seymour Duncan Blackouts and JBs

    Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Seymour Duncan Blackout AHB-1 Phase-1s 7 string. These came in a RG7 I bought and I am not a fan of active pickups(DiMarzio junky).

    Blackouts vs. Sentinent/Nazgul

    So I'm getting an RGA8 in the mail in a couple of days, and I'm 99% positive I will hate the pickups. I'm wondering if the Nazgul/sentinent set are worth the extra 100 bucks over the blackouts. I'm not opposed to other pickup suggestions, but I can't really afford Lundgren (wish I could!) I...

    Duncan Liberator with Blackouts?

    Hey guys. I have a quick question! I have to do a full wiring job on my Soloist Pro and decided that I might as well change pickups anyway! So I've been looking into Blackouts and that brought me to the solderless Liberator. So I was wondering if the two go together or not? Not tonally...

    First time 7 string buyer

    I'm buying a 7 string in a month or two. It's an older Ibanez Japanese RG model, with SD Blackouts in the neck/bridge and one volume. This is going to sound like a dumb question, but what should I expect? :lol:
