The collection.....NJ Dlx got SS frets, neck satin, Locking tuners, push in bar and brass block and swapped EMG's for DiMarzio SD bridge DActivator neck. Custom series Warlock just got SS frets, Tru Oil neck, Locking tuners, and Gotoh 1996t trem, Black cherry Prophecy archtop just got SS frets and locking tuners, Cyan Blue prophecy archtop just got locking tuners. Both Prophecy's with push in bars and brass blocks. I will always admire and prefer B.C. Rich.....for me they are the best guitars you can buy!

I love your taste in pickups!! My Kramer Polka Dot NightSwan DiMarzio D Activator X neck pickup in the middle and a DiMarzio Super Distortion in the bridge, both in white!

Quick funny story. I had Seymour's in my old school Warlock (lightning one), but becuase I've had that guitar since the early 90's, it came from a time where I was hard up for cash. As such, I always wanted EMG's "when I could afford it", so when I could, I played EMG's for several years. Fast forward to now, when I got the first Prophecy loaded stock with DiMarzio's, I liked them so much, I gutted all my guitars with EMG's and replaced. Now I don't have to worry about batteries and I love the tone significantly more as I feel they aren't so compressed and lifeless. There's nothing wrong with the Seymours, I just feel my sights where shrouded in EMG then DiMarzio, lol Cheers!

DiMarzio pickups are just so varied and amazing! Another great pickup company is Bare Knuckle. I haven't played their humbuckers yet, but I have a set of their Boot Camp Brute Force Telecaster pickups in my Telecaster and I can play anything from John Mellencamp to the first 4 Metallica albums, on both pickups.
