I have ourchased a 520QS on fleabay, and it has V7 and V8 pickups. I haven't recieved it yet, and plan to play it awhile to judge the pickups.
what I'd like is some opinions on replacements. I'm thinking that the SD JB would be good for the bridge, but for the neck ?
Maybe a Paf Pro? I want something that will be clear, but can handle high gain. Something that will clean up with guitar volume, but sCREAM when I want it to.
I know I could go EMG 81/60, or 81/85, or even 89/89 so as to keep the switching the same (5 way). But I like to be able to use guitar volume to clean up. I like a tone like Jerry Cantrell on "Dirt". I'm pretty sure he used a JB only in his #1 G&L....
Any suggestions would be appreciated, bridge or neck.
Thanks....
