Can someone tell me what the difference between the 808X, DActicator 8's and Blackout 8's is? I'm trying to decide between the two but its not so easy:D

Why not include the Seymour Duncan's in this? They're not passive but from what i hear they sound a lot like lundgrens.

Sicker than fuck mate.

Exactly. Composing not blatantly djent have become a bit of a challenge as of late but im just gonna delete it from my ipod :fawk: Its not like i hate djent though....

Dude im not planning on spending a lot of money...And i am going to get better pickups, im just wondering if there is a way to improve the sound untill then.

Does anyone know of a mod that can increase the output of the RGA8's horrendous stock pickups? Or anything else for that matter that can give a clearer(not necessarily cleaner, just less muddiness ) distorted sound?:scratch: I'm gonna get some other pickups but just untill then... Thx:lol:

Ive been on the same quest. A shame so many bands that use 8strings are "djent" bands...which im tired of.

How much thicker is the RGA8's neck compared to the RG2228?

My whole problem is that this supposed "tube superiority" is just a movement instigated by the tube manufacturers.

My opinion: Screw analog. Heavy, bulky, inefficient, and i dont have a problem with something being old but. Just convenience is the most important thing. We live in a world that if it wasnt for diseases there wouldnt be room to breath, and space is going to become ever more scarce. Look at...

post below^^

This has been mentioned but the drop E is the most practical of the tunings, and mostly retains the 5 semitones between each string. except of course hi B and low E

I would give that a few clear coats just to make sure it doesnt scrape off

Yeah i agree with you on that he playes the whole sweep but unfortunately i cant even slow it down enough to clearly hear...sounds like shit. I think he taught the version which he plays live.

Dude you're a hero! Thanks a lot:hbang: Well then, I'll get started unlearning the incorrect way :lol: Edit: Oh hold on...thats the way i played it XD

the way i have it is (the sweep from 9-12-13...) is vvv^v^^^v^^ (and then backward inverted)I actually played it with alternate picking untill it got too fast and i realised i was doing something wrong XD

yeah i know that but the picking is messed up lol. Oh and "some other guy on youtube" managed to play it. guys if i work hard ill be able too...

damnit...never mind...

Extremely tempted to get an POD X3 Pro...not sure how it sompares to others though

Dude, use the old pickups' cover (after youve opened them) and put it over the aftermaths then post pics of how the stock pickups look inside...please?:idea:
