ChrisDee Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Hey dudes just fitted my beautiful Ibanez RG 1570 with an EMG 81 Active in the Bridge, come to think of it i dunno y cause i basically hate the twangy weak sound of the bridge pickup, but aside from that its a sweet little humbucker. Now i am a legato player at heart, and im a neck pickups spam, im after a smooth, warm, creamy neck pup for sum sweet, fast neck leads ala holdsworth. Now yes i noe the active would have gayed up the tonal qualities of the neck pup, but im cool with that now im in the market for a new neck pup and ive been directed according to my tastes, towards the Dimarzio Tone Zone, and PAF Pro. Now im electronically retarded, so i dunno about the real technical side of these pickups, but i noe i am after a warm sweet, yet bassy and heavy sound for my neck pickup, and my decision will ultimately rest upon the feedback i get from my trusty PG mates. So please to the best of ur 'axoligical' ability...wats the pro's and cons of the two, and any other pickup recommomendations? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
