I haven't played the EVO7, but the Blaze Custom sounds quite a bit different than the regular EVO. Warmer, fatter, and punchier, without the harsh top end.

JP's EBMM sig pickups, according to Dimarzio, resemble a darker, louder AN7 for the neck, and a fatter, mid-ier Blaze for the bridge- hence, Blaze Custom (so says Steve Blucher). The BC is more the like D-Sonic than the EVO.

I significantly prefer the BC to the JB-7. I have both, and I find the BC to be much better all-around pickup. It's, to my mind, essentially perfect for a passive pup.
