My ESP has Duncan Designed pickups in it that work real well, im going to need new ones soon though since i sweat so bad when we play they're starting to rust your ESP has real seymour duncans, doesnt it? i thought you had a DV8, not a DV-200. rust on your pickups dont mean shit, by the way. |

My ESP has Duncan Designed pickups in it that work real well, im going to need new ones soon though since i sweat so bad when we play they're starting to rust i've been thinking about EMG pickups, but i figure you can't go wrong with an old-school humbucker in the bridge Get one, and youll prolly never go back. I was the same way, until I played one in Hoser's Mh300, I was instantly hooked, so much crunch, saturation and CHUNK. Try one out, you will love it. (emg 81) |
______________________________________ [Aug 31,2006 3:27am - Joshtruction ""] well I went out and tried a ts9, ts7, od808, wylde overdrive, and a boss overdrive. few days later I went and tried a bad monkey and I was very impressed. Not sure what to get I saw a bad monkey for 25 bucks and went for it. I am using that for now, or until I find something better (IF!!) because this thing sounds good. Big difference on the 5150. I really should sell all my amps and grab me an engl SE. |

Don't know where falls in your poll, but that's what I use. |
