Hi, i have a 7 string all mahogany neck through Carvin guitar, and i don't really like the PU's on it.
On the other hand, Carvin pickups are a bit narrower than say "normal" pickups, so i can't fit a direct replacement pickup without cutting the guitar.
I don't want to cut the guitar, so i came up with 2 options:
1. Use a J style bass pickup, like Ultra Jazz from Dimarzio or Hot Stack Jazz from Duncan.
But how will they sound? the output is 200-250 mv and 12-14 dc resistance
2. Use a single coil 7 string ( Blaze or Evolution exist in single coil 7 as far as i know ) again, how will it sound?
Here i want to ask any of you if u have one installed ( single coil 7 string pickup ) and could make a mini demo (clean&distortion) mp3 format no more than 1.5 mb big and send it to studiovoices@yahoo.com
Thank you
