SE Mark Tremonti Custom - pickups upgrade?

[Ethelread]

I'm loving playing my natural quilt top SE Mark Temonti. But I'm thinking of upgrading the pickups. I don't play at high gain, 95% of the time on clean tones, and I'd like tones more like that on my Les Pauls. Any suggestions anyone? Thanks!

ive just put bare knuckle pick ups in my se tremonti custom, ive got a mule in the neck and an abraxas in the bridge, great improvement on the stock pick ups,

Thanks, I was thinking about Bareknuckle. I have Mules in another LP type. I'll check out the Abraxas spec. What made you choose that one for the neck can I ask?

I put old USA Mira pickups in mine. They coil tap, and this guitar is my #1. Period. if I want a sound, it`s in there. I just have to go find it.

the mule for the neck is one of the best pickups they make, and also i wanted a hotter pickup for the neck to make it more verasatile.

If you want to go the hot bridge that the core has you could find a tremonti bridge. if you wanted to go bareknuckle probably something like the nailbomb.

I put an abraxas set in my tremonti SE custom and really like them. I play that guitar the most.

+1 on the BK Abraxas. I dropped a set in my Bernie. Really pleased with them.
