Alright, so I've decided to order an RG1527 via Eric. Anyway, I've read loads of review on that guitar and they all list the guitar's stock pick-ups as crap, so I'm gonna have Eric put in some new ones. Anyway's, what kind of Dimarzio 7s would you recommend?
I play progressive metal/shred so I want some seriously high-output (so I don't have to crank up the gain for tapped solos), rich-tone pups. For the neck pick-up, I was thinking Evo, seeing as how Vai uses them and they sound great. I want something really great for leads in the neck. Do you think the Evolution is a good choice?
For the bridge, I want something that can handle sick solos like Stream of Counscousness, etc., but churn out uber-distroted grooves at awesome quality. I'd like for these to really chug out pinch-harmonics and stuff like that properly. Evos sound good (listening to Building the Church riffage) although is there anything better?
Thanks for your help. I'm really hoping to make this a serious tone-machine![Headbang :hbang: :hbang:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/hbang2.gif)
