Comparing the two pickups to get that You really got me 1978 sound,Seymour Duncan 78 vs Pariah pasadena white check out my other videos please subscribe thanks ✌️
The pickup that got me the closet to classic Eddie tone is the Duncan Custom Custom SH-11 which Eddie actually used. Phenomenal pickup. You won't want a very tight, thuddy low end for an old Eddie tone. You want a low end that sounds full but with clarity and sweet, multidimensional harmonics that sound like you're cracking them open like an oyster. In your demo the '78 really nails it to the wall. I have yet to try a '78 but I'll probably get one. It's not so much that I'm trying to sound like Eddie. God knows I'll never play like him. But I like working with this sort of tone. I play simple strats with one bucker, volume, etc. I like working with organic, harmonic tones that are also warm. I used to have a candy apple red Charvel Holdsworth with a standard non-locking trem on a double fulcrum and a graphite nut and an original hand wound JB with a roughcast magnet. It sounded great. I experimented with a number of pickups. The JB and the Custom Custom were the best. I got my first Custom Custom in '89, right as they hit the market, and I already knew from some techs that it was the Eddie pickup without the Eddie name on it. I'd describe the CC as a Pearly Gates on steroids with a fuller low end and more output. But not too much output. It's easy to work with.
You bet. On Panama we year a punchy tone, punchy chords coming through, and smooth leads that cut through clearly. It's not a chuggy sound, but it's full. I also put the CC into one of my Kramers, a Barretta, back in '90 or so. The CC is the only A2 mag pickup I've used for any extended amount of time. I love the EQ and the feel. It's a pickup for grownups who know tone. @@MR.KERNAN
They're really close to my ears. I have a Duncan 78 in my replica. I have a Duncan Custom in an Epiphone Explorer. I'm getting close, but I'm also intrigued by the Pariah. Would you share your signal chain?
I've just ordered a 78 to go in a mahogany Gibson explorer. I'm going single pickup and I'm hoping to get the sound you're getting here. Im just hoping it mates well with the Mahogany. I read somewhere that the pick up was designed too sound like Eddies Ibanez destroyer which was also a mahogany rig so I'm hoping that is true.
You should compare the two pickups in the same guitar. With the differences in the woods of the two guitars and the fact that one has a Floyd Rose, are imparting a lot of tonal differences aside from the pickups.

Both are great! The Seymour Duncan 78 Model wins for me, by a small margin. Both of them make great stuff!
Dude that was righteous! Good job!
Thank you ✌️

I got a 80s kramer I got a duncan custom custom in and it's definitely Panama sounding ✌️

@angusorvid8840 exactly the maturity level has to be there appreciate the comments ✌️

Running a EVH iconic head green channel,and some reverb that's in my protools ,but essentially the guitar, amp to interface ✌️
@@MR.KERNANThank you! Sounds great!
Nice man!!!
Thanks brother ✌️
78 nails man. And in an inexpensive guitar. With so.e mods. You just sold me on a 78....
Awesome hopefully you got one ✌️
Seymour Duncan 78. hands down.

I'm sure it's going to sound killer post a video when you can ✌️
The Ibanez destroyer was Japanese Sen which is ash and the pickups were either the stock Super 70 or a Duncan Custom Custom.
@ryanhicks9089 oh how nice it would be to have a destroyer and see how close we can get ✌️
@@ryanhicks9089no one knows what pickup was in the destroyer. It’s believed to be a super distortion
Yes

Your right I should ✌️
The Pariah is just a tad too hot for my ears, but still great. Again. I dig the '78.
My favorite too, I got it in a 84 kramer now video's up ✌️
Nice job man the only thing is the lower frequencies rant as brite
I'd give it to the custom 78
It's definitely a great pickup one of my favorites 😎
