The Pickup Place / HS-2 or Area in the middle position

« on: June 21, 2016, 10:04:26 PM »

Hi,

Looking for the middle pickup for Heavy Blues 2 in bridge and Area 67 in neck.

Chosing between Area 58, 61 or HS-2 pickup, all the other models may also be considered.

The main goal is to get the most versatile sound pallete available, with distinctive sounds in each position.

Any ideas, guys?

Thanks.

The Pickup Place / DiMarzio DActivator X vs Duncan Invader

« on: June 08, 2015, 02:47:42 PM »

Hi,

Need ultra-hot bridge pickup for a bright Squier 51 guitar. Chosing between Invader and DActivator X. Want to get fat and tight sound in the bridge position.

Tried only Invader 8-10 years ago in a Tele and liked it a lot. But have not tried DActivator X pickups.

Who has tried both of them, who had a chance to compare them? What is the actual difference or similarity between them?

Thanks!
