Ok, so I got my 2000 model Gary Moore LP on the way and although they are my favorites, I don't want to put the EMG 81/85combo in it because I want to retain the stock look of the guitar.
In my 1st one I had installed the SD Jazz in the neck and SD Distortion in the bridge. The Jazz is staying as I haven't found a passive HB I like better in the neck position. I planned on putting another SD Dist in the bridge, but I am open to suggestions. I want clear clean full tones out of my bridge pup with no mud or brittleness, with gobs of harmonics when needed, and I usually prefer ceramic magnets with higher output. Basically as close as I can get to an EMG 81 tone or better.
Here are a few I've looked at:
SD
Alternative 8
Distortion
Suhr
Aldridge
MCP
Solutions - ceramic
BKP
Miracle Man - ceramic
Toss others in the mix and/or convince me the SD Distortion needs to go.
