Well I'm new here so I'll start out by saying hello, and now onto the topic.
So I'm looking for a set of new pickups for my guitar. I was originally going to put some Seymour Duncans in it, but I decided I would spend a little more and get something higher quality. I don't know much about the specific pickups and I can't decide what would work best for me. Which is why I came here.
The guitar they are going into is a Agile AL-3100. For anyone who doesn't know it's a Les Paul clone. It has a solid mahogany body (with a 1/16th maple top fyi) and a set mahogany neck with an ebony fretboard. The amp I'm using now is a Vox VT30, but after I replace the pickups on the guitar I will be searching for a tube amp so the exact amp I'm going to be using is undecided at the moment.
I mainly play anything from rock to metal from the 70s and 80s like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Van Halen, AC/DC, and plenty others. The pickups mainly need to handle more of the middle man, Hard Rock.
Bridge - I want a huge, fat, and raw tone from the bridge. I want the pickup to sound clear and not get muddy, and sound good palm muting (be tight enough to not have that flabby like sound). I don't like a scooped mid range sound, so I want something with a nice mid range that won't sound bad in my guitar. Output and magnets don't matter to much to me as long as the pickups sound good.
Neck - Here I'm not as picky. Most of the time I usually only use the neck pickup for cleans and some overdriven lead playing. I mainly want that woody like tone with a nice bright but smooth top end. But I'll really take anything that complements the bridge pickup nicely.
Well that is all the info I could think of. If you need anything else just ask, but I'm eagerly awaiting your suggestions.
