That's assuming you have at least $700-$800 to blow on new pick-ups and an amp. If you're going to get the Seymour Duncans, make sure you get the Screaming Demons. Or get EMG 81's. Either way, they're about $100 a pop. Not to mention that any kind of amp that's worth a damn is going to cost you at least $500. OR...you can throw down $90 for a Boss Metal Zone now and have a quick fix until you can actually afford all of that stuff later.
