Word, clear on the cleans and very gainy distorted. I love mine in my UV. But I think setup of the guitar can drastically change the sound.

I've never really liked the Blaze (from the few times I've played a RG with one at Mars), but I've got a buddy with a UV777 and Legacy halfstack that sounds absolutely fucking amazing. Great cleans, crunchy rhythms, singing leads. This reinforces my belief that pickups are extremely application specific. I love the JB, but I had a Jackson Kelly that it sounded just god awful in.

Stock or aftermarket? The 7620's shipped with New7's, not Blaze's, which while a significant cut above the stock Ibanez pickups I was used to at the time are no match for a proper dimarzio... (though, they seem like they would sound better in basswood, and if the CST's pickups WERE in fact new7's, I can confirm they rock in that bodywood, although the bridge is way more scooped than a Blaze in that tonewood.)

I never noticed that the UV had abalone, or what looks like it, as the binding. That's definetely a pimp axe dude, nice catch.

i've got a JB and TB4 sitting in a box somewhere because they just sounded godawful no matter the guitar i put them in

hated them in my Rhoads, in my neck through RG, in my 85 Yamaha, now i love them in that box
