Question

Universe project...DiMarzio suggestions please!!


Hey guys!!
Just about to start a Universe themed but customized guitar project!! My problem is im up in the air about which Dimarzio's to put in. Body will be mahogany with quilted maple top and the neck and board will also be maple!!

I must say that id like to have an extremely versatile tonal range, playing styles from death metal to jazz to sweet clean acoustic stuff .....so the hunt for a 7 string piezo bridge(like the rg2027) is on but F.A luck with that so far!!

Im leaning towards - Dsonic7[b] Blaze7[M] Evo7[N]...... my two uv's are equiped with blaze sets so i know what they can do!!!

Any suggestions would greatly help guys..

thanks in advance

a pair of D-Activator 7's?
Evo7 in the neck is too loud for a D-sonic...

yep... Blaze Middle works well with the D-activators... very "sparkly" in positions 2 + 4.
And oh ya, since the design of D-activator's are two differently tuned coils, wiring the south coil (vs standard north coil) in position 2 + 4 adds a "bassier" sound.
