Anybody had a play with these pickup thinking of purchasing one of the Suhr pickup to replace the bridge pickup of my Ibanez Exotic Wood Series USA as it has a Di-Marzio PAF-PRO and with the wood combo Mahogany and Flame Maple top it sounds dead. What do you think guys?

Excellent pickup, I have them in a Les Paul, lots of high end cut and definition. You swear you were playing through $400 custom pickups. Both the neck and bridge sound great.

Guitar Adjuster... thanks so you love the Doug Aldrich pickups! I was told they are really hot pickups but they are controlled if you know what l mean.

Believe me you will love them, much less money then a lot of customs. Just about the perfect sounding pickup. They are hot but still have tons of articulation.

Get the Aldrich neck, that is what I have, it's sweet too, just like the bridge pickup. The set goes together perfect.

I second these pickups. I only have the bridge model (still much thanks Allen) but these are the best pickups I have ever herd for rock/metal. I will eventually get these in every guitar I own.
