"Invader's Superb Tones!"
Sound: I just replace my BC Rich's BSDM pickups (from my Bich Archtop) today with an Invader on the bridge and a duncan distortion on the neck...and i was totally blown away. The Invader drive my amp like crazy, the sustain is infinity! Its the best metal pickup ever! Seymour duncan is one best pickup company ever... Feature: perfect! Ease of Use: so far so good, no probs at all... looks aggressive, strong... Quality: Seymour duncan makes the best pickups out there Value: worth the money! Manufacturer Support: they are nice, I've emailed them asking many things...thye respond really fast! The Wow Factor: Yeah! I want it, now i have it! Overall: This pickup is the best for metal... esp if u like those kind of middy distortion... all notes are clear and really stand out... get this one if u want something naturally aggressive tones, better than emgs...really

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "This pickup invades"
Overall: I installed this pickup in my new schecter C-1 SLS passive guitar and it sounds awesome. I was looking for a pickup with more output without going to active. Its got a good amount of low end and also a decent amount of mids so you can get a thick, yet crunchy and defined tone from it. I play through my pod hd on the engl fireball patch at it sounds brutal. It's probably not as versatile as the JB or the duncan distortion, but if you play hard rock or metal you defiantly want to check this bad boy out. The cleans aren't that great, but if you roll the volume back its useable (I use my neck pickup, the seymour duncan jazz, for cleans anyways so its not a big deal) All in all, I'm satisfied with my purchase.
