I didn't know who else to ask, and I seem to be banned from everywhere else...
I'm starting up a new project with my old buddy. It's all 7 string based, modern metal toned, progressive, melodic, and dynamic. Just imagine if Sevendust and Lazerwulf, had a baby.
The other player, (Dequello, on here,) will be playing a 7 string d ropped, through a 6505+, and will be carrying most of the heavy chug/chunk, while doing the technical rhythm work. I can get you a little sample up if you really need it.
I will be using a 6 string, but with the top 6 strings from a 7 string set, tuned like a 7 string. I will have no high E, and my top B, will be dropped. I'll be focusing on adding to the that big chug/chunk, while doing more of a harmonizing, melodic, space filler kind of thing. I'll be using a lot of those 3 string, mute the middle string for the harmonic, type of stuff. probably a good bit of that Korn like, noise making to boot. Listen to a sevendust song, and you will figure out real quick what I'm talking about.
The guitar I will be using, is an LTD FX-260SM. Its a big bodied Explorer style, 3x3, 24.75 scale, TOM bridge, guitar. 2 piece Mahogany body, 5 piece maple neck, with a photo spalt fake top.
I'm using a Randall RM 50, with the Judge/GTO module as my main amp tone. I've already modded the module for a tighter low end, and more gain. (input cap, and R1.) It runs to my VF pine 2x12 cab, with Swamp Thangs.
I need a pickup, And don't know where to start anymore. Any maker is fine. I just need something powerful, that can handle the big strings, low tuning, and not flub out in the bottom. Any suggestions?

I hear Mexico is nice this time of year.
