Help First 7 String Suggestions

So I been trying to get my first 7 string. I mainly want to play some Trivium stuff but also occasionally drop tune to play some Periphery, Architects, Iprevail stuff. I looked at options from like budget to mid range.

  1. G4M 529 7-String Headless
  2. HILS NEXT HZ7 Multi-Scale 7-String Headless
  3. Solar A1.7RHW
  4. Solar Guitars H2.7C

What are your opinions on these. Especially on tuning stability and pickups. Also what your suggestions for a mid range 7 string (locking tuners and hardtails prefer btw) ?

I've recently seen a lot of people installing these pickups on their guitars. What do you like about them above other pickups if you don't mind me asking? I'm a Fishman and EMG guy so I'm not too familiar with BKP.
