JP70 pickups

[SFW]

I recently purchased a Sterling JP70. So far I really live this guitar. The neck is absolutely killer. My only concern with the guitar is the stock pickups. I'm trying to decide between the Crunchlab 7/ Liquifire combo or the new Illuminator set. I wanted to see if anyone had experiences with both set and could offer some tonal insight. Thanks for the help!

Hello! I've got a similar sort of question but i'll make my own post about that in a moment.

I just wanted to say: Dont limit yourself to only these pickups! There are a LOT of great pickup manufacturers out there. I love DiMarzio pups myself, but seriously if you're wanting an epic tone, perhaps have a look at the new Bulb Sigs form Bareknuckle. Those things howl.

Otherwise, i'd be more likely to go for the Crunchlab and maybe something a but smoother in the neck - like a norton?
