Seymour Duncan Blackouts AHB-1 Pickup Test

Four pickups were tested, Ibanez INF2, Dimazio Tonezones, Seymour Duncan Blackouts AHB-1s, and Seymour Duncan JB4s. This is the Seymour Duncan Blackouts AHB-1 pickup test, I uploaded the others separately.

All pickup tested under exactly the same conditions. A basswood RG470 with a Gotoh Tremolo was used as the guitar. Guitar was plugged straight into Sound Cards DI, then into PC, VST amp model effects added using Amplitube Metal Heavy Standard in Cubase. Strings were new D'Addario Pro Steel Regular Lights. So all conditions exactly the same.

When deciding on pickups myself sometime ago I was having trouble finding pickup tests that had a reference to compare it to, as it was hard to hear what was the pickup or amp in most clips I found here. I thought I would upload my pickup tests for you guys. I admit I am not the best player, I just tried to play a variety of riffs and licks to help compare tones. Enjoy :)
