Ibanez RG1527
Hi, im getting some new pickups, i want some EMG's for my 7 string Ibanez RG1527, i have a jackson with the 81/85 setup and it just kills. But i dont know what to put in my 7 string Ibanez.
I know there is the EMG 707 and the EMG 81/7, what should i put in my guitar, wich one in the bridge. Which one of those two sounds better.
Thanks

The EMG 707 sucks so much ass...
I have one in my 7620...
compared to my other 7620 which has an Dimarzio Evolution the EMG just sucks... and suck really bad.
get a real pickup.

Wow i thought i would never get that respond.
Is the Dimarzio Evolution an active pickup?
Because i really want a pickup with balls in it, and just pure sound that "hits you in the face"

do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY form the 707... it colors your sound SO much (and not in a good way) its very harsh and sterile... massive ammount of treble too..
its lame, my EVO kicks its ass

O because like i said, i have a jackson Kelly with the 81/85 setup, and i loved the sound they give me. But i like passive also, i have also an Ibanes RG570 with a PAF Pro setup, and also it sounds very good for playing classic rock.
But for a live sound and to play death metal, i have liked the EMG's, but what should you recommend me for putting in my Ibanez RG1527, my 7 string.
