Is the Everything Axe pickup set good for playing heavy metal?
I want a set that will make my squire into the most possibly versatile guitar I can afford and the SD Everything Axe seems to be the best choice i just want to know if they can handle stuff like Iron Maiden,Metallica, Ratt, and other heavy metal.
P.S. The other set i was looking into was the Lace Sensor Red-Blue-Silver but SD has a better name and better reviews
OKAY, first of all, DONT listen to this kid talking about the Emg’s. emg’s ALWAYS sound the same no matter what guitar you put them in. if you want actual TONE, then ceramic magnet pickups are the way to go. If you are looking for a good humbucker to put in the bridge position, i would say the dimarzio PAF pickups, Seymour Duncan JB pickups, or the Seymour duncan SCREAMIN demon. those all kick MAJOR ass for metal. stay heavy bro.

i would say a set of emg 81 and 85. They are active and they are amazing on metal settings and good for everything else.
