I have an ESP Horizon with painkiller in the bridge. I can get pretty defined tones on the lower strings but it is a pain (no pun intended) to control the brittle/harsh highs that I need to dial in to get the chunk the way I like it with this thing. I am not the most savvy when it comes to...

can anybody record an a/b comparison between the emg jh het and fishman devin townsend set?(cant get the devin townsend set in my country, so a sound comparison would be nice before deciding if im gonna order it or not) would really be appreciated

Hello to all, Long-time lurker and first-time poster here. I sold my seven-string a little more than a year ago to finance a custom guitar build. Now that I have disposable income for my hobbies again, I'd like to get a new seven-string ESP LTD guitar, since I've had a lot of good experiences...

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Bought this guitar a while back after searching for what seems like an eternity. Despite getting it finally, I find myself looking at it more than playing it so up for sale it goes. This is the ESP LTD that was only sold for one year before Gibson...

Potato phone pics first and words later. As you saw from the title, this is the Schecter Banshee that came out about 9 years ago, in 2013 if I remember correctly. Let me preface that I had no plan of buying another guitar, as I recently acquired a Jackson DK7M. But as I was scrolling...

Hi! I'm modding an old guitar of mine with an EMG 81/60 set. Layout is to be a 1 master vol, and a 3-way switch. I have an EMG PA2 boost (with switch) that I want to include. Ideally I would make the volume control a push pull pot, which would activate the boost if I pulled the pot up, and...

Hey everyone, I've been wanting to make this comparison for a while. I recently rounded off my ESP LTD Phoenix collection so I now own 4 of the same model, each with different pickup configurations. This means that I can now compare the pickups (or guitars) through an amp and see how they sound...

Hey, I've been looking at some entry level 7 strings recently, because of some metal albums I really want to be able to play. Today I discovered an Ibanez RGA 7 with a set of EMG 81-7 and 85-7 pickups swapped in. Price converted to dollars is about $500 (keep in mind that used gear tends to be...

So a friend of mine wanted me to install a het set into their guitar with an emg solderless system. The problem is they wanted each pickup (bridge and neck) to go to their own output, resulting in 2 separate outputs. They also wanted to use the 3-way toggle as a killswitch. I followed this...

I've decided to switch out the blackouts in my ibanez for EMG pickups. I've been dealing with noise (possible grounding issues, I have attempted to fix them and am against sending my guitar to my luthier AGAIN as I have pretty recently just got it back after an entire month) and have gotten fed...

Hey all, first time posting here but a long time lurker. I recently got an old Peavey Predator strat wired up with a HSS EMG pickguard, however I am having an issue where the sound drops out when switching between pickups, with the bridge coming back to life as it were after some hard strumming...

I'm less than enthused with the Bare Knuckle Aftermath pickups that came with this guitar (Ibanez RGD7UCS Uppercut) and want to throw in a pair of actives. I did a bunch of googling but didn't find much about the Uppercut 7. Does anyone know if I will be able to drop in some Fishman Fluence or...

Like I mentioned in the Fluence Thread: I was bored and I had some actives at home, so i tested them out. Everybody can upload something if they want to So on this comparison i used the Neural DSP Omega plugin and Reaper as my DAW. Nothing post processed. I only adjusted the input volumes for...

Hi everyone I have been very intrigued by the EMG Retro Active sets lately. Curiosity is starting to get the better of me and I'm thinking about ordering a set. I've watched many reviews, videos, etc. (based on what I've heard so far, I'm leaning towards the Hot 70-7 set a little bit), but I...

pics :) Absolutely love this thing. Plays amazing. Long term its going to get gold Hipshot Hardware (possibly - if not black Hipshot), and EMG pickups/Darkglass preamp. Stock tuners feel shit and the frets need polishing. Thats about the only bad things.. As you can see, I still...
