I have an Ormsby SX 7-string, comes as HS, thought the neck single coil was a bit weak (understandably so), and I went for a pickup change, so I went for a Hot Rails 7-string from SD Custom shop for the the neck.
Now, this is not a cheap pickup, it's $200, but this is the 1st time in my long...
Hi everyone,
I'm thinking to change my current bridge pickup to get a new better sound, mainly what I'm looking for is high gain and heavy sound without risking clarity. I play in D Standard tuning and my guitar is a neck-thru Jackson with ash body and ebony fretboard. I've been going through...
I have decided I would like some new pickups to replace my Kiesel Lithiums in my DC-700. I play both rhythm and lead stuff from all over the metal spectrum. I need something that chugs well but can handle more technical stuff so having good note separation is important. Having a good or at...

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar:
You're looking at a fairly heavily modded Charvel 475 Deluxe. The Desert Crackle finish is killer, the "toothpaste" Charvel logo is classic, and it's a great playing guitar! The neck is a comfy D-shape - not too thin or thick.
This guitar is in very...

Hey guys, so I got this seven string guitar and was wondering if some of you could help with a pick-up situation I have.
I got a seven string Charvel San Dimas style 2 and the body is made up of ash wood and the neck is made out of Maple. My situation is that the guitar sounds too muddy and...

I recently just remembered the charvel existed aha. The specs arent too similar, different woods, pickups/configuration of pickups, locking vs non locking tuners, fixed vs trem bridge, roasted maple vs satin neck. I dont know I love the look of both of these on sweetwater its only a $40...
Ive played the latter of the two and it felt amazing. Looks cool, sound is off the charts, and just feels like a good instrument. I love periphery and I love ADTR. Ive always wanted an eclipse but never got along with the 24.75 scale length plus the usual emgs they would throw in. Theyre very...

Hi!
I'm planning to buy a new bridge humbucker for my Jackson SLATXM 7. It's a basswood body, with a through-body maple neck, floyd rose, 7 strings guitar.
She already have a Nazgul. It sounds powerful for rythm, but i'm not entirely satisfied : it's lifeless, too mid-focused and the chord...
I'm looking to get a Les Paul kind of tone out of it. I'm thinking something along the lines of a PAF or something, maybe a little hotter. Would like to stick to Alnico, just something somewhat warm and well rounded. Something that can pull off everything from early 2000s hard rock to modern...
I have a Jackson USA Soloist with a SD JB/59' and I cannot get along with them. I have tried screwing around with the PU height, strings, amp, pedals, etc. and it is just not really my PU. In fact the 59' just SUCKS for leads and cleans it is disgusting IMO.
Sure I know this is the industry...

Can anyone tell me about the CL-P-H pickups and their experience with them?
I’m curious as to how they would compare with:
Neck: Seymour Duncan SH-1N 59, SH-2N Jazz, Sentient
Bridge: Seymour Duncan SH-5 Custom, Pegasus
Thanks for...
Anyone had this idea before? Never heard anyone saying that they used this combo or even thought about it, the thing is, I really love the Omega but hate the Alpha (too sparkly and not creamy at all), the sentient would be the logical substitution since it has that creaminess that every neck...
Hi, All.
This story probably starts around 2004, when I upgraded from an old "Cheri" Strat knockoff to the "mighty" Cort X-11 (to be sold a year later in favour of a brand new Ibanez RG2570), and found out that "custom shop" is a thing.
Back then, I knew EXACTLY what I wanted in a guitar - at...
