Pickup Showdown: EMG P/J vs Aguilar DCB vs EMG HZ

We've received many questions asking how the LHZ sounds in non-Spector basses, or its compatibility with other pickup types. Today, we're taking a departure from the usual preamp comparisons to do a quick comparison of the LHZ with 3 different pickups: 1. EMG P/J set: Active single-coil P/J set we all know and love! 2. Aguilar DCB: Passive humbuckers that are the stock pickups in the new Spector Icon models. 3. EMG HZ: Passive humbuckers that were the stock pickups in the Spector Rebop models in the mid 2000's. We're comparing these with the LHZ "dimed" (bass and treble boosted) as this represents how a large percentage of users set their EQ.
