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 LF in Bridge & D-Act in the neck, or get a third pickup that pairs well w/ LF neck, LF bridge, D- Act(N) neck, AND/OR D-Act(N) bridge to swap in for one of the other two for a tone change (e.g. a D-Activator 7 bridge, could be swapped in so both D-Acts are in their "intended" position for a very different tone).
Would this setup (neck DA 7 and LFire 7) not have a unique amount of interesting tone options, in theory?
What configuration(s) should I try, & what pickup would be interesting to add as a 3rd pickup (to add or just to trade in the DA or LF for?
[BTW I like modern heavy tones, djent, late Meshuggah/Martin Hagstrom, tight but ballsy low end, I like Actives and passives, depends on the situation]
