Guitars used- I (Keith) am using a 2014 Schecter Banshee prototype 8. For the Blackout clip at the end, I used a 2014 Schecter Blackjack SLS C-8. Wes is using a Jackson SLAT 8.

As with all of my other pickup shootouts, the amp tone settings remain the same throughout the demo so that you can hear the nuances of each pickup. In the full mix, some people may not be able to notice a huge difference between them. So, I've added the guitar only section at the end, so that you can hear them easier. During the guitar only section, there are no post effects added (no EQ or Comp, just raw tracks). For best results, listen in HD with high quality headphones or studio monitors. One thing worth noting, is that all of these pickups have a different FEEL to them. Unfortunately, that's something that cannot be demonstrated. But the differences definitely extend beyond the pickup tones. Finally, keep in mind that using a baseline tone is only to show the differences between each of these models. Under normal circumstances, you would dial in a tone with whatever pickup you use. So, ALL of these are capable of a wide variety of sounds. -KM
