Members Doittoday Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Prestige. "You might try an F-spaced D Activator bridge model (DP220F) in thebridge position and an F-spaced Evolution neck model (DP158F0 in theneck position. If you want to replace the middle pickup, areverse-polarity Red Velvet (DP174S) might be good. I have attachedwiring diagrams for either option." .. what say you guys about this?How does the D Activator compare to the D Activator X? Gear: Basswood body/bolt-on neck/tremelo/rosewood fretboardand Mesa Mark III Will this get me crunchy low end and screaming high end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thinkpad20 Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 I was gonna say that a D-Activator might be what you're looking for since you seem to be gunning for the lots of clarity, lots of cut, lots of power approach. I've played a few guits with the D-Activators and they sound pretty killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played a few guits with the D-Activators and they sound pretty killer. I have no idea how the evo would sound in the neck though? lol but the DActivator seems like a good bet,apparently the Dactivator-x has more output and less clarity.. so no-no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thinkpad20 Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 I don't know... I have an Evo neck pickup in the bridge of my Peavey Firenza (also basswood) and it's a pretty cool sounding pup... You can hear it or . Of course it's in the bridge, but it is the neck model and you can get an idea of its output and clarity etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Curtis.Fagan Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 The D-Activator is what I will have in my Ibby S series guitar, I think they sounds great personally... I will be putting JB's in the neck though! In my RG I'm putting a WB Custom pup and again, a JB in the neck... very nice. I'm easy going about the set up too. EMG-PA2 after the pups, don't need to split them ever, just need them to sound ballsy... -Curtis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members glenecho Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 now where to find them to buy online... ??? I normally get everything from my local music store or Sweetwater, but the place to buy DiMarzios is American Musical Supply. They seem to have most every model and usually have most color choices in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
