I have been considering a pickup swap between two of my guitars. Before I gut one for the other, I tried a set of GFS Fat PAT humbuckers I have in an Ibanez RG through my TC50. I haven't touched this guitar for many months and was surprised to find out I had it tuned down a full step.
My Hi Gain channel has the gain knob at around 2:30. The bass is around 11:00, mids fluctuated between 9:00 and 11:00, treble and presence around 9:00. Channel master was at noon, and global master about 11:30. I have the amp running into a vertical Recto 2x12. The top speaker is a WGS Veteran 30 and the bottom speaker is a Mesa V30. I started with the Hi channel in normal mode, then flipped the switch to tight.
OMG! The tone was unbelievable! Sinister is the best way I can describe it. It wasn't dark, just roaring wickedness that would scare small children. Sabbath tunes were powerful and crushing. I couldn't stop playing, and I never flipped the switch back to normal.
Unfortunately, I don't currently have a method of posting clips, but I really wish I could share!
