Seymour Duncan Brandon Ellis DYAD pickup

Ойын-сауық

Trying out the Seymour Duncan Ellis DYAD Parallell Axis pickup. I didn't get a chance to flip it but it sounds gnarly as hell as it is!
DISCLAIMER: Seymour Duncan and Brandon had this pickup being sent to me for free to try out, however that won't affect my opinion about it or how I make my video.

    The Parallel Axis line is really underrated. The PATB Original is like a clearer Duncan Distortion to my ear. All the thump of a Screamin' Demon with the mids and highs of a Full Shred, but more output. The string separation and clarity on this pickup under that much distortion is really nice.

Electronic G-force). Both respond well 'nuff to my touch ... light or heavier attack. Just angle the Dunlop Jazz III a bit, and you'll find RR's and Zakk's flute, when ever needed. 🤩🤘💪

    ive had emg 81/85 in my esp eclipse for 20 years and they do the job - the only criticism i could have is that there is alot of noise with high gain so you gotta mess around with settings alot to get the desired sound - but this goes for any active high gain pups. like others are saying, it's more about your knob dialing on the amp/pedals than the pickups.

    That is true. There needs to be more videos that give you the full comparison but I'm sure they can be very time consuming and Ola is a busy guy. Would love to hear the original pickup and individual clips of this pickup in normal and flipped orientations. Either way, I feel very confidant that the Brandon Ellis signature pickup is among the best pickups you can get to cover a huge range of metal tones. Brandon is among the very best shredders I've ever heard and his vibrato is insane! Was already considering buying the DiMartini pickup but now I know that I will be getting the Brandon Ellis DYAD for my Ibanez project guitar.
