Hey folks.

I'm trying to find the best active pickup to put in a guitar I'm going to build. I like high out put pickups, and so far I've only tried the EMG's 85, 81, and 60, and the Seymour Duncan Blackout. The AH2 I think it is, with the extra component to add more gain or remove it and use it like a normal high output PAF style pickup.
Anyway, so far I like the blackout with the extra gain component removed, but I'd really like to get an active just for it's silent operation basically, but I want one with more organic tone. I'm pretty big on the Dimarzio Super 3 or the Super, etc,. Lot's of pickups though, but I don't like Mids to be scooped! I don't like to bright of a pup that have that Ice pick in the ears top end.

I'm wondering about the new EMG's.. 57 and 66 I think it is and maybe the Duncan Dave Mustaine pups, etc,. Anyone have any experience with those and what did you think?

Thanks :thumbsup: :rock:
