Wait, did you ask your liberal buddies at the SD forums what pickups they think you should try? It might be a good place to start
nah i created a topic over at the racer x forum that ayrton usually hangs around. those guys know more about paul gilbert and bruce than i ever will. besides, why would i want to mention dimarzio pickup/paul gilbert references with SD? i would get flamed beyond recognition
LOL! No shit. They despise you if you can actually play guitar. If you play faster than eighth notes, you're a wanker. If you listen to Paul Gilbert or Yngwie Malmsteen you're a wanker wannabe. If you even mention that you like a shredder or metal band, you have to also mention that you kind of like John Mayer to avoid getting flamed. If you aren't pro-Obama or anti-Bush, you have no future at SD.
Yeah, it's much safer here. Ayrton is smart to seek Dimarzio advice here.
Honestly though, there are three Seymour Duncan pickups that I like: Custom Custom, PATB 1 and Full Shred; however, none of them do I like more than a Dimarsio PAF Pro or Super Distortion.
They do have a STK 6 now that looks promising, but I seriously doubt it can top a Dimarzio Virtual Solo so I'm not holding out any hope.
For Ayerton's guitar though, I think a PAF Pro/Air Norton combo would be a perfect choice for that guitar. It is said that Dimarzio and Ibanez are a perfect harmony, however, Dimarzios are way more versatile than that. I've tried them in Les Pauls and strats with incredible results.

Nah, there are actually some good DiMarzio threads on the Duncan forum.
Just ribbin ya a little man. It's cool.
