What pickups are in your USA Jacksons?

[Chad]

Sorry to be a downer, but what exactly is the point of this thread? I could name a beaucoup of guitar/pickup combinations I've had over the years, but how exactly would that be helpful? Every guitar is different, which will lead to varying choices...and pickup selection is very subjective in and of itself.

Anyone every tried the Lollar Imperials? I heard they are awesome.

[Mazrim]

KV2 - SH6 - SH4
WR1 - BKP Painkiller - SD Full Shred (awesome combo)
SL2H Custom - EMG 81 - EMG 85

---------------------------------

Suhr Modern Carve Top - Suhr Aldrich - Suhr FL - Suhr Aldrich
Ibanez J Custom 8320 - EMG 81 - EMG 81
Ibanez RG570 - V1 - S1 - V2
Esp Horizon NTII - SH4 - SH1
Les Paul Standard - BKP Nailbomb - BKP Cold Sweat

My next guitar will most likely be a Jackson and will most likely have a BKP Aftermath set in.

Curiosity?

It goes to the same effect as "What brand of strings do you use?"

'92 Jackson Rhoads - BareKnuckle Nailbomb and Jackson J90C (I believe) in neck

[1b4n3z]

2008 SL2H - EMG 81X/85X. Still on the fence about these - nice thick tone but rather low output and silly dynamics (as in abnormally fast note decay and one needs to strum real hard to produce the tone). It's better now I scrapped the solderless system but still not quite what I'm hoping for. Perhaps a preamp to boost the gain back to 'active' levels (my D-Activators on a bolt-on Ibanez RG are about twice as hot :P )

Something doesn't seem right. Are you sure your cable is pushed in the jack all the way? EMG jacks are tight and sometimes you need more than one click to make sure it's in all the way and making the proper connection.
