I just recently purchased my first 7 string. It's an Ibanez RG7321. It's a great guitar other than the fact that I really don't like the pickups. I initially planned to put some active EMGs in it after purchasing it but then after thinking about it I realized that doing that is going to require body modifications so there is a place to put the 9v and the pickups already cost over 100 dollars. It's looking like putting active EMGs in this guitar is going to cost more than the guitar did. So I've pretty much decided I'm going to get some nice passive pickups. Any suggestions? I've never changed the stock pickups in a guitar before so I really don't know anything about it. I listen to and play mostly metal and I don't aim to mimic but I really like bands like dethklok, as blood runs black, and the human abstract. Any suggestions for a good set of pickups that would cost between 200-300 including installation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
