have no idea, but Zakk might give nice clues about them....
at first I thought you were asking about afterdeath experiences, I've only had one and it was actually really freightening but I'm glad I had it -------------------- Visit my:

- warm vintage mid-pronounced pickup with slightly hotter output. I wouldn't count on that much of a hotter output tho, it's definitely a vintage sounding pickup. - If you have a bright guitar with maple or ebony fretboard it will work nicely. for other options you might want to look for some more, BUT.. In reality you can try it and see if you like it's sound. Doesn't matter for what purpose it is, it should be a nice pickup. It's all coming down to experimenting with various pieces until you find the one that matches your wood nicely. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

To tell you the truth - I think you should check out some moderate output Dimarzio pickups, that Pearly Gates looks a tiny bit vintage to me. Not sure how it would work, you can test it, but if I were in your position, moderate dimarzio is what I would look, not vintage SD. This would be my decision, but the choice is yours in the end.

Check out Alnico II Pro, or Slash pickup from SD, or PAF Pro, Air Norton or Air Classic models from Dimarzio, that should be interesting too.

this is a hard one, i got also a jem, but 90's jem, mine got paf pro's and yeah it sounds more vintage to me, but at the end of the day, the jem is a very light and modern guitar, and it's oriented to hard rock/metal, so don't except a total tone makeover.
BUT, why don't u sell it, if you are 100% sure that is not your kind of guitar, sell it and buy an used SG or les paul, OR flying v (which i 100% LOVE) -------------------- Check my Instructor Profile Rockers! Got a Blog too!, www.adriantracks.com Follow me on facebook and youtube! -Youtube |

I agree as well. Modern guitar will probably work better with modern pickups. This doesn't mean the vintage ones won't work well, possibly they will do the job, but at the end of the day you won't turn a Ferrari into Bentley by replacing only the wheels or the engine.
Try this: browse the local stores a bit, and tryout guitars. You may find something interesting that does the job better for you. You don't need to buy, just try and see where that gets you.
