No Gear Day
I'll be getting a used Seymour Duncan Invader bridge pickup that I found at a very low price from a seller this week (it's also the Synyster Gates signature version which has chrome poles as the only difference from the regular one) and I'll put it on my basswood RG, which has stock CAP pickups.
Aside from Syn, I know that Tom DeLonge had them as the only pickup in his old signature Fender Strat models which he used live along with Mesa Boogie Triple Recs around 1999-2003.
I read that it sounds very dirty and is very high on bass and mids, so I wonder how it will affect the amp tones I'm using (or sims at least, I'm using a Recto sim with my own settings in a BOSS amp editor). I usually just stay in standard tuning and Drop D, sometimes I'll go down a half or whole step, so I'm also wondering what the pickup would sound like in high vs. low tunings.
