Just looking for some more opinions, reasons why etc Have emailed Tim and his immediate respone was Painkiller, it wasn't a pickup I'd really considered at that point, I'm more than happy to swing with his judgement, but if anyone has any other thoughts....Also, what do we think might be a good neck pairing, or a Painkiller set maybe?
This is the email i sent him (the guitar is a Parker Fly Mojo Flame, which I've just realised I didn't actually mention....)
Howdy,
having been reading the forums for a few weeks and asking bits and bobs, I'm still rather undecided on a new set of humbuckers.
I predominantly play in thrash and death metal bands, but do like to be able to get more varied sounds out of my guitars too.
I need extremely tight bass response, which tends to make me think of Miricle man, Ceramic warpig... but I like a good mid range push for cutting through mixes, plus I'd like to be able to get reasonable clean sounds at the bridge and good cleans at the neck. A big fat but still clear lead sound at the neck i'm after too.
I'm playing all mahogany guitar with maple top, into a triple rectifier....
I'm really struggling to make any kind of a decision at all currently so any advice or ideas would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Neil Erskine
Cheers in advance guys
