    which pulls off the heavier tone the best through a high gain amp?

    SCEAMIN DEMON...IMHO its the best TONE, with med/low output. all the others are alittle too sweet sounding & probably will sound a little muddy doing fast rythm or shred stuff. the alinco pro is also great.

        I'm wondering the same thing. I want to replace the Duncan Designed bridge in my DK-2. I have it narrowed down to Tone Zone, TB-4 or TB-6.

            A guy I know that is a gibson freak swears by these pickups from VooDoo. He claims they are the most authentic sounding PAF style pickups. THe screamin demon is also a great sounding pickup in the medium output range-about 10K on the ohmeter.

              Metallica - Seek and Destroy might be the best example of low output pickup played with high gain amp?

                The JB is very popular for a mid-output pickup.
