I'm an absolutely amateur/dumb when it comes to electrics, resistor values and stuff like that, I swap pickups basically following schematics. With that said, more mids are always welcome, as long as the amp does not lose treble and presence, which is something I want in my sound (many are...

The whole DiMarzio thing is sort of a mystery for me, I'm watching a shitload of vids and comparison clips (with duncans too) and they all sound quite good, I guess my ears are gettin oversaturated somehow. I don't mind some scoop in the lower mids, might help a lil keeping the low end...

I do have the original EMGs the guitar came with, but it didn't shine with them... or maybe I wasn't a fan of the lack of dynamics at the time. Funny enough EMGs are still strong and you see plenty of pros using them no matter how unpopular are in forums. Gotta give em another chance someday...

First of all thanks for your replies guys! Now: The Custom SH-5 is something that has always been tempting me, it's also quite popular so not hard to find. I've never played one tho, just listened to some clips and read some reviews, where for some reason it's both described as mid...

Hello guys, I need some advice for a pickup swap, and while I'm absolutely terrible at describing sounds, I'll try my best. I'm currently playing as rhytm guitar in a power-heavy metal band, using a Schecter Hellraiser thru a Ceriatone Yeti into a V30 loaded Laney 2x12 (very deep cab btw) I dig...

I still think the Demon would be the best Duncan humbucker if it had some more mids and a lil compression.

Honestly a USA made Jackson priced under 2 grands here in Europe, in this moment, is half a miracle.

Btw, is there anything around with the mids of a custom custom but less smooth?

Mmm ok that their amps do have small iron, can't argue with that, but what do you think they are lacking practically? IME there are sort of 3 factors that do define how much you shine or get buried when comparing guitar amps (and band mix in general): the amp EQ (natural EQ curve, and how do you...

Likely Satan

Let me know when you get to try it. If it's mid prominent like a custom custom but less smooth in the treble, I might be very interested

Never played the hunter, but the Demon is sort of a paf EQ wise, with very piercing high treble, lacking some mids Imho, and very moderate output. It's a nice pickup if you want to give some bite to smooth, dark and muddy guitars cause it's very articulate under gain, but ime if you're in a band...

So how did ya like it?

Na, Mezzabarba is from Lazio and RedS from Veneto, it's like a spanish guy holding a grudge against a swedish. Worlds apart.

So his Levi doesn't sound exactly like Nik's current one right? Would like to hear the sound differences, I read here and there that the Levi is a dark and muddy amp, but it honestly doesn't sound like that in the clips,it's very very brootal

Sounds very pissed. I've liked this clip too Sounds less abrasive than the FB but with more oomph and air, wider in a sense.

Is there something you actually like?

Great tones! I remember Nik at Ceriatone having a Dookie mod amp built too

Question: which one of these (or even other Duncans) has more bite and rawness, without going extreme modern/dj0nt? I have an old Hellraiser which sounds somehow smooth in the upper register and chubby in the lower one, which is why it sounds so good with the Screamin Demon it has now in bridge...

Where are other peecs?
