Hey!
I just picked up a Schecter Demon-7 as my first seven string, seems like a solid beginner seven.
My main setup is a Schecter Hellraiser C1 emg 81/85 on a 6505+ 2x12".
The current pickups on the schecter are a chinese duncan "design" blackout hb105 setup. I'm really leaning towards swapping them out for a EMG 57/66 setup. I mostly play metal but would like the 7 string to be a little cleaner sounding. Anyone have any opinions or know where i can get the pickups reasonably priced? Putting $300 pickups in a $400 guitar hurts me a bit but i can use them on my next seven i guess. Also do you guys know if i would have to mod the body to fit them or not and what style i would need? there seems to be 2 different base heights for the PU's.
Thanks again!
