Seymour Duncan Distortion
What would be a better pickup combination for a les paul?
I have a epiphone les paul special II and i want that heavy metal sound. I would like to know what would be the best combo out of these pickups would give me the best heavy metal rhythm and would also give good lead:
Seymour Duncan Dimebucker
Seymour Duncan sh-6 distortion
Seymour Duncan sh-5 custom
Seymour Duncan invaders
I would take any of them except the Invaders - the Invaders have too much bass for a Les Paul and too much output to get a clean sound - if you want any clean sounds from your bridge don't get the Invader, in other words.
The Dimebucker is pretty aggressive, but the Distortion and Custom play a little nicer as far as fitting into a mix, not having as much bass, etc.
I would not go for the Invaders or the Dimebuckers for neck. Consider a lower output pup for the neck - something a little cleaner than what you've got listed. That way you'll have some versatility to your axe, and if you go for neck leads, it'll be smoother. PAF style pickups, Pearly Gates, etc are good ways to go.
