Hello. I've got two Mayones Regius guitars. One is 6 string swamp ash body maple top and hard maple /wenge neck and maple fretboard tune to C#. Second is 7 string swamp ash body maple top, maple/wenge/padouk neck and ebony fretboard, neck thru. I play mosty metal, death metal. Alot of palm mute chords, alternate picking, fast riffs. I need pickups for this guitars. I like tight and articulate bas , clear heavy sound without harsh and fizzy. I like hear every note but sound must be powerfull and strong. I like hear guitar wood also. My amp is EVH 5150 III. Which pickups will be best for this guitars, woods and music style?

For metal which should not be harsh and fizzy I would think that both the Juggernaut and Warpig are prime suspects. Perhaps the Jugg for the 7 and the Pig for the 6.
The jugg delivers a tight and fast, but crushing bottom end, with a clear and rounded high end. Perfect for taming those fretboard woods.
The Warpig is just that: A Warpig. Seriously big and crushing, but in the ceramic version also tight, and roaring rather than fizzy. For death metal it is brilliant.

Thank you for your help. I will order this pickups ;-)

One more question. Ben suggest me Aftermath for this guitars. Ive got Aftermath in mahogany / maple V....but is the swamp ash/maple/ebony configuration will be good for death metal??
