JB? for hollow bodies perhaps.
Dimarzio is an overpriced budget version..
The duncan distortion set is too fizzy compared to the EMG active 81 or 85..The EMG's are where it's at..THE active 89 can split at the neck to give killer single coil neck tones..Active EMG electronics pull the tone right from the wooden bodies. They are the original guitar sound.. I ve known since the 80's.
The hotter 81 goes in the bridge, shred...cut loose.
the 85 in the neck...theres something better...
the 89 is split able. humbucker its the 85 and split is a wonderful single coil. This is the way..
