how do they compare? i'm mainly interested on the eq and how well it the TT cleans up.

...oh, and of course the distorted tone.

from what i can remember, the TT has really good harmonics, and of course is very very hot. but that's jsut general info

The Tremonti is great under high gain, very articulate and thick. However I find it very lacking, and much too hot for playing clean. It can be split though if you wanna give that a shot. That may help in cleaning it up a bit.

well is ther any other pickup (preferably passive) that can give me the eq and distorted tone of a distortion but give me better cleans as well?

And the survey says... JB with a smaller (than the DD) ceramic magnet! (or DD with a smaller ceramic. Same thing.) Not so hot, cleans up better, not quite the same mid punch, but close... not as sweet as JB, but sweeter and rounder than DD. Basically, sounds like a mix between the JB and DD. The SD JBDD.

isnt that the quot;JB From Hellquot;? i might have to give it a try sometime

What magnet is in the TT?

It has a very large ceramic magnet. It is supposedly based on the 500T that Tremonti used to play in his Les Pauls.
