#Guitar heads! Got another #gear question. I recently got an Epiphone Les Paul 100, and really like it. I've used it in a gig already, and it plays well, and sounds... fine. It sounds fine. But it doesn't yet sound GREAT.

So, to that end, I'm wondering about getting new pickups. The current pickups I have are the factory installed ones - Epiphone 700 dual coil. I've read a bit on pickups and am thinking of getting this JH-B Seymour Duncan dual coil unpotted which, besides getting good reviews, is pretty affordable!

My question - I don't know anything about pickups, so - is it worth it to switch out the factory installed for the Seymour Duncan? Will I get a noticeably different tone? Are the factory installed equivalent, or are they embarassingly bad?
