I recommend Mike's Music Shop, he has the best selection of 7-string pickups in the universe (to the best of my knowledge).

It's not perfect, nothing is, but it's about as close as they come. I still don't know if it's my favorite sound ever, but it's a remarkable pickup. It does everything you'd want from an EMG but without all the things people hate about EMGs. Now some people won't vibe with it anyways, it has its own sound, but I believe there's a good reason why so many good players are switching to these (then again, people I respected switched to Krank too, but I'd like to think EMG and Seymour Duncan don't NEED to kiss peoples ass to play their shit).

PS: The output on these things are crazy, I lower the pickup height way more than I'd ever put an EMG (those sound best close to the strings).
yeah, i read they were higher output than emgs, haha.

damn, i kinda wanna order one for my 6 string, but i really need to save my cash!

Much higher output than an EMG? Jesus, is it possible to play clean on those?
