Correct you are, sir.

But I'm gonna stay with the 707.

If the Blackouts in my SLSMG (which originally had EMGs) are any indication, Blackouts are way better, period.

No, you just can't say the 707 is better if you have no experience with Blackouts. When I saw Divine Heresy the other day, I got to hear a side by side comparison of the Blackout in Dino's 7 and the EMG in his 8, and the Blackout owned the EMG.

I have played my fair share of duncans and I figured I'd be safe to have a taste for pickups, but I guess not.

got to play a black out bridge in some dudes axe today at the gear shop, plugged it into a mesa triple recto and mesa 4x12 cab vintage 30's. tuned in B.

even the "word" brutal doesn't describe how amazing this is, the crushing death metal brutality that came outta this beast of a pickup with my usual settings, god i came blood.

I think it would be interesting if seymour did a "money back" thing for these. Especially if people are going to have to dremel and clip the ears to make these things fit. Its one thing not to have to route your body, but if you are unhappy and cant return the pickup due to soldering or ear modification, its still going to be met with apprehension.

Just thinking it would be a way to guarentee people would be buying these. And have the retail prices of the sevens been released yet?

Expect them to be about the same price as EMGs. I wouldn't think they'd make them that much more expensive if they did.

I'm assuming he's going to want to mass produce these rack pies, and why not? I love racks, I love pies, so put them together and you have pie covered titties. - JJ
