A few months or a year ago or something I picked up a fairly cheap mahogany/zebrawood Kraken Octa 8 which I was pretty happy with after a setup, with the exception of the pickups which were dire.
Just the other day (okay so it's not NPD today), i put some Lace pickups i found cheap-ish on ebay...

hey guys, i've don some searching but everything i've found is making it more confusing.
i have a set of lace deathbar/xbar in my rg8 and i've recently bought all new pots and 3way switch. and i don't know how to wire it up :/, i want two volume as i have never actually used the tone knob...
Hoping to get a custom 8 string by Siggery in the near future and I'm wondering as to what you guys think about the tonalities of each pup.
Currently I'm leaning towards an X Bar in the neck and an Deathbar in the bridge or to either get a pair of M8's installed into the guitar.
As it stands...
So need a new bridge pickup for my ML 8 string. I figured since some companies are getting creative, the different options would be a good topic. all the options on the table are:
EMG 808 9/18v
EMG 808x 9/18v
EMG 40DC 9/18v
SD Blackouts
Lace deathbar 4.0
Various bkps
Lundgren M8...
Ok I need to upgrade my Septor Pro 727. It has stock Cepheus. They sound not bad but I need something more aggressive and less muddy. I saw this pickups, Lace Aluma Deathbars. How they sound? I play Technical Death Metal, are they a good choice? I can't find some decent demos on YT except Fred...
So I have an agile intrepid 828 with the dual passive cepheus pickups like the one in the this agile Agile Intrepid Pro Dual 830 MN Bloodburst - RondoMusic.com (yes i know this is the 30 scale but the pickup routing is what I'm worried about)
Does anyone know if and which lace aluma deathbar...
So I got an Agile Pendulum Pro Multiscale 7 string, which came with a pair of active pickups which I didn't like. So I ordered a pair of Aluma Deathbars from Lace Music, and got them installed in the guitar.
I just got it back, and on clean patches it was fine, but on heavy ("djent") patches...
