yea you should seriously consider having a conference with a guitar tech and tell him that sentence. There are so many distortion pupies out there and to really like one, you have to play it and not really go my words.

but the Dimebucker seems to be an contender. Whatever the case, try not to get an EMG or any sort of active pickup cause their tone killers. Their really high output, but in the wrong way. Their built to distort which in theory is a good thing, but their range is very small. Basically, their hide all the REAL guitar wood tone and only produce the pickup tone. (thats why you see acrylic and weird shaped guitars with EMGz) Yes, if you read anything about EMGz, you will think their something to be noticed, but not really. You want really high screaming distortion that sounds unique, favorful, and spicy. Not just raw power that makes your guitar sounds if its made of steel. (unless thats what your lookin for...)
