What passive pick-ups are people using here? I was debating about buying a Duncan Custom and Jazz.

Rev2010 said:Duncan JB-7 in the bridge and the '59 in the neck. Love both of them but the JB is the best!! The JB is a fantastic pickup.

No Soul said:I really need to go out and try those, because I love the regular versions of those pickups, so Im really curious to see how they translate into a 7string.
Rev2010 said:They work very well for 7-string. A lot of people here have posted on how much they love the JB. It seems though the general concensus is that they're great in mahogany so I personally have no clue as to how they'd be in basswood or other woods. The two seven strings I have (Schecter C-7, Ibanez AX7221) are both mahogany and I have JB's in both. I also have a Jackson KE3 which is poplar and has the "duncan designed" version of the JB and it sounds totally awesome as well which is why I decided to stick with JB's from now on. So, I can't see it being bad in basswood but maybe someone else can lend some feedback.

An EMG 81-7 costs $320 here as opposed to about $200 for a Bareknuckle.
