Best pickups for Schecter C-7 Blackjack?

Euthanasia · 05-01-2007, 05:50 PM

Hi people (:
I might get a new Schecter C-7 Blackjack soon...
I play modern metal, like meshuggah style, down-tuned to A.
What do you recommend me to do?
To save the duncans or but some new pickups?
and if new, so which?

thank you all (:

Meshuggah Style = Lundgren M7, one would think. That's what they use after all.

Or a Bareknuckle Ceramic Warpig.

Or a Blaze Bridge Model. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5YEqmIIdj8 = Blaze Bridge, I (we?) think.

My thoughts exactly. I highly recommend this pickup if it's in your budget

The Lundgren cost ALOT... is it worth extra money?
and it has alot of low end, and the schecter has alot of low end too... wouldnt it be too much bass?
and what else do you recommend?

All this talk about low end but the lundgren actually has plenty of high end too and it has a really nice clear colour to it. If your sound has a woofy bassy quality to it it might just clear it up. I personally think it's worth it. Is there noone around your area that has one? That's what convinced me, finally hearing one, although I was very close to ordering one already so I could be that one person in my area with it that everyone could try from

Personally, I love the stock pickups. Try the pickup selector in the middle position, both humbuckers in parallel, if you're into the detuned Meshuggah sound.

I didnt get the guitar yet... but i have a Schecter C-1 Classic and i like the duncans, but i dont think they are 'Metal' enaugh, atleast in comparison to the tonezone which on my Ibanez 7421...
So what do you recommend the most for the Schecter C-7 Blackjack exept for the lundgren?
and which pickups do you think will fit the bridge on the schecter more:
707 or 81-7?

...well?

And if i will go with the Lundgren, which pickup will fit it well in the neck? the Schecter's stock Duncan 59' pickup will fit it well?

question: have you actually tested out the guitar in question to see how it sounds for what you want to play?
