I have a VHT CL100 coming in the next week or two. Super excited to have a high gain beast back in the house, Not looking forward to how sloppy its going to make me sound haha But its been a dream list amp for close to 10 years now. Im trying to decide if I should boost it or not!

Nice Nate, did you sell the Science?

Also of course boost it.

Just ordered a new guitar pedal from eBay. $349,99USD and I have to pay almost 90€ for customs because it comes from Japan but I hope it's worth it. :D

How do they compare to the Classics? My main guitar uses those.

I haven't tried the Classic bridge (just Tosin, Modern, and KM sets so far) but the neck is the exact same on both of those sets. The KM bridge is more aggressive than the Classic from what I've heard (like clip-wise, not from people).

Surprisingly, the bridge is less bassy in my KM-7 MK-3 for some reason. I don't know that I will remove them from it. I was debating on removing the set from my MK-2 though prior to receiving the MK-3.

I have the Classics in an all-mahogany beast, and it still is super tight and cutting. It's really weird, cuz I also had them in a guitar with a mahogany body/maple bolt-on neck and it wasn't nearly as tight and cutting. But it's also an Explorer, which in my experience tends to be darker than Les Pauls. No clue why, they... just are. :lol:

But yeah, if the Merrows are more "modern" then the classics, then I gotta try them for sure. I do wish I could get the Merrow bridge separate so I can get a covered Classic neck pickup. I always dug the Jimmy Page covered neck/uncovered bridge look.

Well my Dark Sun reverb/delay finally got delivered today so that is exciting. Next up is possibly an ESP B8 or a SC608B, have a lead on both just need to decide if the cost difference is worth it.

On the search for some tighter/more aggressive pickups for my jazzmaster, thinking maybe nazgul/sentient since I liked them in my Schecter Banshee. Will be tough to overcome my frugal nature though.

if you keep an eye on reverb nazgul/sentient and bw sets pop up cheap surprisingly frequently since people rip em out of the schecter km guitars

Picked up a Maxon OD808 again. This is the second one I have owned. I sold the first one in favor of a SD805. I've changed my main amp since then so I'd like to A/B the 808 and the 805 again. I'm not getting rid of either pedal this time after the A/B since either one is such a good utility pedal to have around.
