It's a player's preference. I prefer both, actually.

ang nakita ko sa Dimarzio, they go for more modern sounds. while Seymour Duncan goes for the vintage ones. that's just a comparison i read at the Seymour Duncan forums. but that's not a generalization about these pickups.

not necessarily.

Duncans have a lot more variety in their pickups - they have their Blackouts, P-Rails, Parallel Axis and so on.

that's why i said it's not a generalization.

usually, when i hear of SD pickups, i think about Seth Lovers, 59, AIIPros. then for Dimarzio, it's the ToneZone, Evolutions, Super Distortion.

but it's really nice that Seymour Duncan makes new products for more modern music, like the Blackouts.

kung rock and jazz, sa seymour duncan merong

alnico ii pro
jazz model
59's
pearly gates
p rails

kung dimarzio naman

paf classic
paf pro
air classic
air norton

if i had to choose between the two brands, i'd go for seymour duncan. mas trip ko workmanship nila kesa sa dimarzio. soundwise, i never had a seymour duncan pickup that i never liked. sa dimarzio, i really don't like the x2n and tone zone.

Angelica Panganiban or Anne Curtis?

Just listen to sound clips, demos and records of guitarists using them so you can choose which brand / model would suit you...

now, back to my question...
