i think i am leaning towards nailbomb.. and perhaps a coldsweat in the neck unless somebody has a better suggestion for a neck PU.

I'm fairly sure (http://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6040&highlight=7+string) that the entire range of BKP humbuckers are available in 7-string, although not with covers.

Couldn't listen to your clips on myspace at any volume (at work :)) but my first thought was Nailbomb bridge with Cold Sweat neck?

Good choice.


That's the same set Chris Broderick uses  and gets some pretty good sounds out of it. ;) Plus Nailbombs are very popular for people who want theit basswood guitars to "come alive". They seem to add a lot of dynamics and harmonics to basswood.
