Hi I'm new to the forum!
I've been lurking around for some time but I can't find what I'm looking for.
I'm building myself a guitar. It's made from mahogany, maple neck ebony fretboard. I want to put a single humbucker in the bridge and am confused as to which one to put in.
I presently have an RR5 (alder body, neck thru, rosewood fretboard) with stock pickup (JB SH-4) in the bridge playing through a 6505+ and love my sound. I would like maybe a little more clarity and tightness.
I play in dropped A# tuning. Think of style like Amon Amarth, Necrophagist, The Black Dahlia Murder, Jeff Loomis' stuff.
I am mostly a rhythm player. (even though I feel like practicing more lead stuff these days)
Of course I tought of the Ceramic Warpig, I'm just kinda scared of the high output (since I hate EMG-81's sound, and yes I know some aforementioned bands use 'em - was talking about the style, not sound)
SO
In a single humbucker guitar, playing tech/melo death metal, playing mostly rhythm with solos thrown here and there. Which pickup would you put in?
SORRY ABOUT LONG POST AND THANKS A LOT FOR READING AND REPLYING!!! \m/
