I am looking at a few different higher end guitars 800$ + (Higher end for me) and I was wondering if using emg closed pickups would be better for pinch harmonics than a Double Humbucking pickup that is open. I was looking at a Schecter Hellraiser C1-FR and also the Scecter Synyster Custom. It is being used for metal and is being run through a few metal and other boss pedals of mine. Let me know Thanks.

I have been looking around and reading up on guitars, and I have borrowed my cousins for now. When I buy a guitar, what questions should I ask. I’m buying my first electric guitar, but I have played the violin for 8 years. A person at a store told me I shouldn’t get a beginner guitar because I have musical experience. and where do you think I should buy the guitar ( ex. Guitar Center, etc… ) Thanks in advance!
