I put this pickup in my Ibanez at the bridge about a year ago and I have to say, this thing is GREAT. Its extremely high output, and the sustain is real good on it too. I say its the best for Metal solos. When you turn overdrive on and switch to the invader, every note comes out crystal clear and loudly. The only downside is since all the notes come so clear, if you mess up during a solo, it'll stand out just as clear. But you gotta try to get the solos perfect for any pickup so that doesnt really matter. Id reccomend this pickup for anybody who wants to play metal or hard rock. The only thing I dont get is, on the page here, it says its a neck pickup when this thing is designed for the bridge.
I recently bought this pickup and had it installed into my Gibson Les Paul BFG to replace the Burst Bucker 3 in the bridge position. The difference was immediately noticeable. Output wise, it blows away my other two guitars both of which have EMG 81s and 85s with the 18v mod. The output is so ridiculous that if I plug my Les Paul in right after having my amp, a Hughes and Kettner Switchblade 100, EQed for my other guitars that I have to turn the gain knob down a quarter of a turn just so it won't feed back at me. However, this pickup also has awseome tones. Its really crunchy with a tight low end and screaming highs which are great for leads. The only thing that I would warn you about is the cleans. It does NOT do sparkly cleans. This pickup will overdrive your clean channel making it more of a bluesy crunch. I could personally care less about cleans though, thats what the neck pickups there for, cleaner, less output, and rounder tones. To sum up, if your considering buying this pickup dont hesitate. You wont regret it!!!!
This pickup is really good, it gives this crunchy/muddy sound, i don't know if that makes sense, at the same time and i never really been a fan of Seymour Duncans until i tried this out. I have this pickup on my Ibanez STM-1 on the bridge. It still sounds good even in drop C and B. I use dimarzio in standard E on my Ibanez Xhiphos and seymours in drop C on my Ibanez STM-1.
