Had that set in a 3550mz I had awhile back. They performed well and were capable of spanning a lot of genres. However, for the bands you listed, a lot of people are very partial to the crunch lab/liquifier combo. I don't have much experience with those outside of playing a JP7 equipped with...
Definitely with Zimbloth here, I have an RGA121 that I recently fitted with a Cold Sweat neck and a Holy Diver bridge. The clarity is present even with obnoxious amounts of gain and while it is a very hot pickup (the holy diver), it is very versatile. I use the guitar in two bands, an alt rock...
Ignore my retarded metal face and focus on my lovely gibby which I happen to love very very much. Done a good bit of work to it, I dont plan on letting this one go :hbang:
Awesome catch! I just picked mine up a couple of weeks ago and I still love it! Post about the pickups when you get them, i'm interested because i'm also going with BKP (Holy Diver bridge/Cold Sweat Neck). Haven't seen one without the headstock veneer though
I've got an explorer with a painkiller in the bridge lol I love it but i think i want to try something different on this one Though I'm definitely open to other pu suggestions!
yea I think there have been 3 or more rga121 ngd's in the last 3 months, couple of naturals, one or two violin finishes and one beastly see thru black :) They are awesome guitars, i'm ecstatic that i snagged one. Not alot of guitars like this floating around in Arkansas lol
Walked into a small local shop with my semi beat up 60's tribute les paul hoping to find something to trade for. I was looking for something less traditional and that would serve for a cool platform. Nothing all the interesting popped up until I saw an Ibanez hanging on the wall. I tinkered with...
So I left my house this morning to go give a hungover friend a ride back to her house and upon returning, there was a box. And in this box was... (Sorry for pic quality, phone pics will have to suffice for now) Yup, a Blackjack ATX c7! odd lighting... Since it got here, I haven't...
Alright so I'm having a slight noise issue with p90s in my rig. Its not the hum, I have a decimator and it handles the hum wonderfully. The problem occurs when i scratch. I use my 60's tribute les paul for relatively high gain music as well as low gain and alot of cleans. When i start playing...
I am in love with mine. I found it in a pawn shop a year ago for $700 and haven't looked back. It handles low tunings just fine (im using EB cobalt 12s in drop c but it could go lower easy). Threw BKPs in it but the stock pick-ups aren't bad at all for metal (a little harsh for lighter things)...
Yea its got the sticker on the back and came with one of their product packets. I'd be more surprised if it wasn't because of how little the strings slip and this one does not coil tap unfortunately but I can't complain, it performs very well :hbang: UPDATE: Finally played it through my main...
Decided to finally pick up a 7 string! I wanted something relatively inexpensive to try with as I've only owned 1 7 before and quickly got rid of it (it was a cheaper ibanez. it just wasn't comfortable for me). I decided i was most comfortable with a 26.5 scale and so: (sorry these pictures are...
I've heard great things about the cold sweat and nailbombs for neck use. In my explorer I paired a painkiller bridge with a Mississippi queen (p90 sized humbucker) neck. the p90 is quite nice for thick lead tones but thats just me
^^ my friend has the 112 combo and even its an absolute pain in the ass. head w/a 212 cab would be easier to deal with and of course u get to pick a decent cab out too.
Like everyone has said, they make a great combo. I play a 6505+ through a recto cab and then the other day at a gig this happened: The sound guy asked me if i wanted to use his orange too. I bought my mesa used for $300 a while back and it has c-90's in it. I did prefer the Orange and it's...
