The Aftermath set is a powerhouse for modern metal and aggressive rock. These pickups provide a searing high-gain tone with plenty of articulation thanks to that Alnico 5 punch, but be aware they’re not a one-trick pony – the coil-splitting option opens up some cleaner territory. If you're chasing a tight, modern metal sound and don't mind a bit of a price tag, these are a solid choice.
