shermann24 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I've been playing for about 5 years, and want to define my tone. I've never bought pickups before. I have all stock gear. Basically, I'm trying to get this tone. anything from the latest album (controller) Nice clean clear highs but punchy and heavy, yet still clear lows when distorted. I'm thinking something for the neck, but I really have no clue. Any recommendations? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Paul Fanatic Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Well, how much are you looking to pay? I have a few suggestions, but like I said, it comes down to how much you're wantin' to pay. I can honestly say that the EMG 85 is a good neck pickup, not too thick but not too thin either. Price on it will run around $79.99 so with tax about $88.00. Only thing is you'll have to run a battery for it since it is an active pickup. Overall EMG's will probably be your best bet unless you get the Dimarzio D'activator, however I don't know the price on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
