changing pickups on a cheap 7string Ibanez

[Matt-Steele]

btw, yes I was talking about mustaine,

Yeah, do not take atoragon's advice.

try, read the different opinions and decide for yourself. do not buy things without having tried, because reality is usually very different from what people says on forums.
especially if they write without respecting the others: those are the ones that know less stuff.

I think there's no need to make this personal.


Any suggestions based on what I described (post below)?

Well, I tend to use the neck pickup for cleans. I use both pickups parallel (actually just the "inside" coil of each pickup in parallel) for the bright as fuck cleans, the pseudo telecaster tone, and I use the neck pickup alone for jazz playing.

But I don't know shit about neck pickups, so I don't know which model would help me in this regard, and I definitely want a mass produced one, because it's easier to get.

try a seymour duncan jazz, it fits well the description.

The 6-string crunchlabs sound really good....
The 7-string version is a piece of muddy garbage IME.

Wow scary.. Hey Lasse could it be that the 7string guitar u tried it with wasnt a good match? ?

I doubt it. I've widly heard this especially when it comes to the Crunchlab and basswood guitars, and one of the many reason I've steered clear of the Crunchlab all together. Although I am a fan of the Liquifier.

Here's a good discussion about the topic...
