Hi new to the forum... been playing guitar for a while now. I recently bought a Gibson Les Paul Studio and i want to replace the bridge pickup.. Im looking for a sound similar to some doom/death metal acts (finntroll, tristania, arch enemy, dimmu borgir etc).. but lower. I also quite like the high end gain sounds of Rammstein.
I drop tune every string by a tone so someone recomended the d sonic. I really want some clarity to what I play because the stock pickup in the bridge isnt beefy or clear enough, im lacking in the tightness of my sound.
Im using mesa boogie tremoverb/line 6 vetta II.
I really dont want to go for EMG 85/81 or actives as it would mean rewiring my guitar, so passives if possible.
Any thoughts suggestions on pickups or comments on the dimarzio d sonic would be appreciated.
Thanks!
