Before I buy though, I was wondering if anyone would recommend any other pickups or if they have any experience with Seymour Duncans. If you know any good 7 string pickups, share them as well. My price range is about $110 per pickup, I'm only really looking for a bridge one right now. Trying to get something good in versatility, tight and fat low end, Good for the low range of a 7, but one with enough clarity so a nice shimmer can be brought with the clean tones as well.

EMG's work great with low tunings, they hold the sound together really well, maybe you should look into that. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I've never been a fan of EMGs for 6 string guitars but the low tunings really sound great with them. If you want other options, I can recommend the Dimarzio Tone Zone, which I've seen a couple of times and also like the sound. The ones I have are EMG 81/7 and they are good enough for me.

I would check out some of the more famous 7 string pups out there. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

If you want a clear low B, and especially if you are planning on downtuning, you should be careful You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
