Hadn't heard of either prior to this thread, have since researched both and am very grateful to have learned of them.

i just looked up irongear myself. shit, those are cheap. if they're a decent pickup then that would be quite a buy. $40-50 for a pickup that's supposed to be on par with the boutique shit.

I also have an EMG passive bridge pup and a burstbucker neck pup in my Matt Pike inspired 9 string. I feel that between these 2 sets, a large spectrum of doom and like sounding awesomeness can be covered. That being said, I haven't tried out many other pups. I've been hurting to try out a warpig as well as some Dimarzio D Activators, and maybe one day give some p90's a spin.
welcome to the forum, dude.

Aww yeah another Ampeg dude! Welcome. I use a VH140C, although a Peavey Mace is in my sights right now. Can't pass up 160w tube for cheap (recently recapped too)
