Hey guys,
So I just recently purchased a PRS SE CU24, looking for some new pickups. I have a couple shredder machines(a Japanese 570 with Evo/AN and a EBMM majesty with sonic ecstasys), so I’m looking for more of an all around guitar with this one.
The times I’ve played lower output pickups I really enjoyed the responsiveness, so I figured with this guitar I’d go with something lower on the output spectrum. Plus it’ll keep the guitar versatile - if I want to play something a little more subtle(seems to be the trend with me these days) I’m not hindering myself.
I’ve looked high and low, and trying to find guys using these style of pickups in samples for heavier music is... well it’s not easy... either that or the sample quality is garbage.
I realize some of the lower output options probably won’t be ideal for heavier music due to loose/muddy bass. Some of the ones I’m considering are the Suhr ssh, ssh+ and Aldrich. SD 59, 78 custom, pearly gates, AIIs, Seth lover(I feel like I’m missing one here). Dimarzio paf pro, 36th anniversary.
I’d like something that doesn’t have flubby bass and has decent clarity as well.
When I say heavier music, I’m not looking to do djent with this guitar, nor black metal or anything too crazy. I’d say the lowest it might see is c standard maybe.
Does anyone have any direct experience with the above options? Samples? Any other options to throw in?
thanks in advance
