EMG 808 vs Nazgul video comparison

[crankyrayhanky]

So I just changed out my EMG 808s for a set of Seymour Duncan Nazgul/Sentient (Thanks Chubtone!)
The last thing I did was Symptom of a Universe, so I figured I would try to do it again for a comparison. Far from scientific, but I did my best to keep variables down. I used the same 2 xRhecto profiles on my Kemper and tried to play it reasonably the same. I'm not sure if it's night and day differences on this video- the tuning and riffage are less than ideal to show the differences but here it goes.

A sounds clearer/defined for me, those the EMGs ? seem to have more bite

not heard that tune before at that tuning

I have the answers at the end of the video

I showed this to my cover band- one guy was like it "sounds like awful white noise" while the other was saying "chunky awesome"

No matter, I love playing it at home deepE0 is so much fun
