Yo! So I've got an old faded SG that I'd like to make into a more fuzzy, meaty metal machine. I don't want tight, I want fat! Tasty solo tones are priority. I would love to cop tones more like Mastodon's last few records, Baroness is another good example. That kind of stuff.
Currently, it's got DiMarzio Transition B+N in it (had them sitting around from another guitar), and they are cool, but not really what I'm going for - I'd like something with a warmer sound in both positions. This guitar had the 490/498 set originally, and those weren't so bad tonally but kind of wimpy.
I've honestly thought that even a fat HB-sized P90 might be the ticket - that might be a cool alternative.
Thoughts?
