Ok before you go buying a set of blackouts cause you aren't sure you like the 707,, spend a few bucks and do an 18v mod...Believe me it helps...I ordered the Blackouts for my Ibanez 7 cause i played a gig with my bud's 7 and he had blackouts..I like the blackouts..The bottom line is the Duncans have more presence...which you can achieve with the EMG's by doing the 18v modd..No they wont sound Identical but the difference isn't drastic just suddle.. I think the 707's work better for hardtail and the Duncans are better for trem.. thats just my opinion and preference..My sixer has an emg 81 neck and Duncan Live wire metal bridge.. Cause i wanted both worlds....
