Ragnarok vs Aftermath..which do you prefer?

[@Stretchwreckedem469]

They both sound really good. The Ragnarok definitely sounds like it takes you more into EMG or Duncan Distortion territory with a lot more balls, but at the same time there's something about the Warpig's more dark and bass heavy tonal character that make it sound much more natural in comparison. I feel like they both sound great together double tracked with two separate amps that compliment each pickup and emphasizes the strengths of said sets.

[@joejohnson8966]

Incredible comparison. You saved me 200 dollars in pickups cause I wanted to do this myself. Thank you so much.

[@SlinkyT82]

Skipped ahead so I didn't know which pickup was which and preferred them Rags. Great demo dude! Cheers.

Hello man, Does Amp modelers sounds better powered by a tube-amp than a poweramp pedal like Seymour Duncan powerstage if played live with cab or it give the same results and quality?

[@PariahVSGear]

Hey dude. I definitely have gotten better results with a tube power amp and a modeler than any other setup

[@jero_mendez]

Absolutely right! Axefx + Fryette is killa!

[@duckbuster6391]

Great playing and great video man! Enjoyed the comparison

[@knizz16]

Sweet comparison!

[@totalbender420]

Man…. The warpig is brutal af. It’s like an angry caveman clubbing you over the head. Love it. Did you dig it? Curious how it would be in a live mix with a band

Warpig Ceramic?

[@PariahVSGear]

Yes!

[@josephbutler148]

Black pickups were better not as hairy and scooped im guessing they were the pigs thicker and darker in a good way the others sounded too close to the juggernauts and had what I didn't like about them

[@zAvAvAz]

thanks a ton you thrash

[@gaberox1]

Constant Motion sounded dope

[@garethsmith300]

Hey man, have you compared the Ragnaroks with the juggernauts? I'm in the process of building an Aristides and think I have narrowed my pickup choices down to those two

[@PariahVSGear]

Nope, but I really disliked the juggernauts, and I have heard that's not an unusual opinion haha

[@garethsmith300]

@@PariahVSGear that sucks to hear. I really enjoyed your jugg vs fishman demo and preferred the juggernauts to the fishmans.

[@PariahVSGear]

Yeah, they worked out for me better than the moderns in that guitar, but ultimately they sounded a bit thin to me. The Rags have been a much better fit

[@zerothemad7383]

thank you, debating on a an E-II with warpigs in them.

[@PariahVSGear]

War pigs are definitely my jam haha

[@zerothemad7383]

@@PariahVSGear It came close but I pulled the trigger on the Keith Merrow MKIII Artist guitar. Feel like that's a better studio guitar, especially for metal.
