Help choosing pickups.
« on: March 21, 2011, 06:01:36 AM »
I'm in the market for some new pickups as I would love to replace the pickups in my Gibson Explorer. I play through a Peavey 5150 Block Letter and typically play metal. I'd love to get a tone similar to Killswitch Engage or Unearth. I'm not entirely sure which pickups would best suit my guitar. I'm looking for a huge sound with clarity.


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hey there, welcome to the forum

Miracle Men are perfect for that modern American metal sound you're after - chunky, tight, clear and smooth in equal measures :)
