I'm sure there's a thread out there talking about this, but I'm a lazy piece of doodie.

I have an LP (Classic) and I have a Screamin Demon standard spacing collecting dust.

I typically play the higher gain pickups, JB, Distortion, etc. But, I'm willing to try out that Demon again. The JB is a tad bright in that guitar, and I suppose a quot;little more growlquot; could be the answer.

Anyone tried one? What'd you think? How did you goose it into high-gain territory?

Tried it, kept it. More even and growly than the JB (no upper mid spike see) NOT a high output pickup per se but is triff wiv cleran, crunch and with gobs of amp gain.

I dunno, tried the Demon twice, did not like it either time, found it shrill. JB does have a high mid spike but the Demon seemed to have some harsher highs

Sounds like someone on the boards needs to try a Demon with an alnico II magnet then report back to us. :-D

A demon has just arrived to me and is replacing the pos 1 trick pony gibson 500t in my les paul classic.

I took a while in my decision for a bridge humbucker, i hope it works out for me!

If that doesn't work, then double down on the dose with some screw pole pieces in place of the hex poles.

Some people have loved it and some have hated it.
I've disliked every LP I've heard with a Demon in the bridge (which was two), but you should check it out and see how it sounds. You can always sell/trade it for something else if you don't like it.
If you're looking to have a hotter output than the Gibson pup that's already in there, then I don't think the Demon will do the trick.

Thanks guys. Naw, I'm not looking for hotter than the JB that already lives there, just something a little quot;rounderquot; I guess. I'd like it to be versatile, from metal to clean, but sometimes the upper mid peak is too much.
