I think people [who don't have endorsement deals] may grow out of EMGs because they essentially offer only 2 humbuckers for the bridge: 81 and 85. Same thing with their 7-strings. Most pickup manufacturers offer a lot more variety. So while I'm sure some people simply don't like their pickups, "EMGs suck" could often be a lazy way of saying "I'm getting tired of EMG's, I'd like some more variety, and they're not offering me anything else, so..." And their 7-string routing doesn't exactly facilitate a switch, so a bit of resentment comes into play.
If Duncan made only the JB and Custom, along with 7-string pickups in soapbar housings
