    Liquifire 7 AND D-Activator(n) - Unique Tonal Options?

    I have a basswood Ibanez RG7 (RG7320Z), with D-Activator 7 neck & Liquifire 7 (coming in the mail). The D-Act (neck) I plan to use in the bridge, but interestingly, both D-Act & LFire are "able" to be used in either bridge or neck position. What do people think of the options here? I "can" do...

    D-Activator/Pegasus/Other for JS22-7 (Bridge)

    Hi folks! So I'm thinking of upgrading my cheap JS22-7 a bit, since apparently the stock pickups are a bit microphonic and I can't control them very well. I have to say the pickup choice is appaling in its diversity! I'm thinking only the bridge pickup, but also accept suggestions for neck: -...

    ESP LTD AW-7 (belated) NGD + video demo!

    Hey guys, I got a used LTD AW-7 a few months ago but I forgot to make a NGD post, so here it is! I picked this guitar up for about 550 euro's iirc. The previous owner had the action set up pretty high, probably because of the low-B nut slot, which was cut a little deep. Other than that this...

    Pickup choice in Ibanez

    Hello everyone, this is my first post here :) Next week I'll get my first 7 string, an Ibanez RG7421-WNF, and although the stock pickups seem great, it's almost certain that i will change them. The problem is that i cannot decide between a Seymour Duncan Nazgul/Sentient set or Dimarzio...

    Hey guys, Haven't been here in a while, but spent a bit of time on the site while researching my newest acquisitions. Noticed there aren't many recent reviews of the Hadron, so I thought I'd share my impressions in case someone like me comes looking in the future. Bought my Hadron two weeks...

    NPD: All DiMarzio Content (Bridge: D-Activator or D-Sonic? Part II)

    Bridge: D-Activator or D-Sonic?

    As you all know, pickups are not something easy to test like many other gear. The only experience I've had so far is buying an X2N bridge for my sixer, but I didn't like it so far. Even if it adds more gain and heavy sounds, the background noise is just awful...not to say if an Air Conditioner...

    New pickup for Charvel San Dimas?

    I'm looking to put a new pickup into my Charvel San Dimas Wild Card #3. It has A Seymour Duncan TB4 installed now, but it is very bright. I'd like to darken the tone a bit. It has an Alder body, Maple neck and a Floyd Rose. I was thinking maybe a Dimarzio D-Activator. Any other suggestions?

    Ibanez RG1527M Prestige w/ Camo DiMarzios (Mint)

    I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen this before in this thread. I bought this new on an impulse a month or two ago, and installed camoflague DiMarzio D-Activators, but really haven't had time to play it. The guitar is basically new/mint, I've played it for a total of 15-20 minutes. Because of...
