Premier Tone Nazi
Hello, I'm wanting to replace the bridge pickup on my Ibanez RG1527 Prestige 7 string, made of Basswood (because Ibby stock pickups sound like ass)
I would get an EMG 707, but I'm not comfortable with the idea of cutting away at some of my guitar just to make it fit, so EMG is a no-go for me.
I'm looking at DiMarzios since my friends tell me they have a more natural tone to them.
I primarily play Melodic Death Metal, in the Swedish/Gothenburg style and I'm looking for a Scar Symmetry, Miseration, Solution .45, Dark Tranquillity, type guitar tone...you know, something thats really brutal
I play through a Peavey 5150 2x12 combo, no pedals...just straight in
I tune down a half-step for my 7,
A#, D#, G#, C#, F#, A#, D# low - high
(or Bb, Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb...same exact thing, just a different way of saying/wording it), using gauges 10-59
Any suggestions would be great.
Thank you!
