if you prefer high gain, TESLA's VR Extreme should be a better pick (instead of the Plasma 3).

If you need to test out X2Ns or D Activators, just contact me, both of my guitars are loaded with high output pickups!

Why do you like them?

hi, i heard the bill Lawerence pickup is very quiet.. is it true?

thinking of upgrading my tele with a set.

D activators are the newest stuff from dimarzio. High output shit.

technically, all wax potted humbuckers are quiet, not exclusive to the BL.

Well, the construction of the pup matters, not just the wax potting.

If you ask for a PAF style winding - one coil more heavily wound than the other, then hum cancellation is not so good but you get closer to that PAF sound.

sounds tempting...
but im still interested more in the evo 2..anyone tried them>?

I have.

Biting. Very compressed. Pretty much 1 sound and that's it. Could clean up decently with volume knob-age.

A HAS Sound Viper sounded (and felt) wayyy better than it.

Again - why high output?

Have you explored higher gain settings (I'm sure you did) or stacking drive pedals into your amp to push it harder?

Hot pickups only do a few things... drive the amp/pedals hard for more drive and give you lots of compression which does help in certain playing styles.

Compared to lower output, more classic/vintage output pickups - these have more dynamic range plus they certainly sound sweeter on cleans. And your volume knob works much better.

You can simulate the heaviness of hot pickups via that drive pedal method described above.
