Eh they are alright, I really like the white ones I've seen in the emg catalog. But I wouldn't mind playing with them.

Thats like the mother of all 'Whats better' questions.

You can't get a proper answer, go to a store and play guitars with the pickups your interested in. Whatever sounds better to you. Buy.

Btw try and find two guitars with a similar if not identical specs.

Try a Blackjack ATX and a hellraiser :)

I cant remember the last time I played an ATX.

But EMG'z are great for metal. the EMG 81 is brilliant for metal powerchords and heavy riffing.

Lol, im not that good at this. I like the sound of them, its a nice change of tone from my A-1 which has passive pickups in.

But i pretty much only play Drop D stuff on my Hellraiser. But i cant tune it to anything else coz its a floyd rose. I got it set up in drop d :)

Your best bet it to check all the reviews on the pickups from different sites
