Cool! I LOVE the Evo pickups. I've never heard/played them personally in anything other than my Jem, but it never ceases to put a smile on my face each time I grab that guitar and hit that first power chord.
It's just simply the sound I like... full gain, nice balance between highs and low mids and very defined and articulate despite the loads of gain.
I'll bet it's going to sound awesome in the JP.
BTW, I just downloaded a buttload of Dokken this morning from my Yahoo Music Unlimited subscription.
It's in my playlist right now. I had most of this stuff on cassette back in the day. It's cool to hear all that stuff again!

that's what I played one in..the white Jem that they had at a local guitar center..even though it was WAYYY too far away from the strings, I could tell that it was a killer pup..so I ordered one..I think it's gonna sound good in the basswood =D
dude, dokken rules...LOL...I love back for the attack and under lock and key...LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

It should sound great! The Jems with Evos are alder bodied guitars, with exception to the new mirror ones which are basswood.
But basswood and alder have very similar tonal characterisitics, so you shouldn't have any problems.

that's what I heard...basswood and alder are very similar..so if you like a pup in one, chances are you'll like it in the other =)

I'm personally not a big fan of the Evolution pickups at all, I found them kind of dead and lifeless.
But if they work for you, that's all that matters, man! Good luck!

You might be right! All this time I thought it was my playing.
Well, there's probably more truth to that than I want to admit.

I love the Evo's in the Jem7VWH, but I think I like the PAF pro's a little more that are in my Jem 77FP. Different woods, the Jem7VW is alder, the FP is basswood, but I bet the Evos will scream in a JP6.
I actually just played my JP6 for the first time this weekend in about 6 months.
P.S. I thought the breeds were in the new rock mirror?
