I find the Norton and Tone Zone have some of the best, sweet harmonics of any pups I've ever played. Wonderful sounding pups.

V7 V8 both sounded pretty awesome...seriously good pickups with lot of clarity

The Ibanez bridge sounds dull and lifeless compared to the Dimarzio Norton. The Dimarzio neck sounds much sweeter than the Ibanez V7. It's a home-run for Dimarzio.

I disagree. I think the Ibanez V8 bridge sounds fuller than the Dimarzio.

The Norton definitely sounds better. That's why I've owned dozens of them. Amazing pickup. The dude in the vid is playing through a tiny solid-state amp. When you've heard a Norton through a great tube amp like a Marshall or Boogie or Bogner or Soldano or 6505 or EVH you will be knocked out. Amazing.
