I have the M6 set on a Schecter Solo. I find they’re really clear and bright but the output isn’t that hot. I think they’re voiced this way for players who down tune and want clarity but also rely mostly on their amp for the high gain . I was a/bing them with Dimarzio Illuminators in my other Schecter and they were way hotter which kind of surprised me ..
Totally true. My M6 guitar was tuned to C# Standard until recently, when I set it up to D Standard. I wouldn't go higher than D (worst case Eb) for this pickup. It sounds amazing detuned - but can be very bright and thin sounding with standard tuning.
