    6string equivalent to the Lundgren

    Hey all! So, I love my Lundgren, it pwns everything, but I do occasionally have a hankering to play my 6string. Now, that's equipped with an EMG 85, which, after the Lundgren, doesn't sound QUITE as fantastic. Opinions! Which 6-string pickup would give me a similar sound to my Lundgren? I...

    I am seriously craving a trem in my RG

    Dudes, this is so lame. I bought my guitar because I didn't want a trem, I was sick to death of all the problems and the hassles that are inherent when you have a floating block of metal in your guitar. I loved my fixed bridge, it was awesome, up until the point when I realised that I really...

    The Light-Ass Strings Bridgade are onto something

    So, been playing 11-49, with a 65 bass string, tuned to Bb. Recently, my fretting elbow (weird mental image there) began to hurt, which freaked me out. So, I wondered if maybe it was my recent string gauge upgrade from a 59 to a 65 that was the cause of it. Anyway, while I was deciding what to...

    Do DR Strings live up to the hype?

    Hey guys I've got a dilemma. I've been playing with GHS 10-60, tuned to Bb. Fairly decent, but... I just don't like GHS strings. Dunno why, but they just feel weird to me, and they sound flabby. I've heard lots about how, for some reason, DR strings seem to have a tad more tension when...

    Had my M7 for a week - impressions

    Hey dudes Well, I've had my M7 installed for a week now, and I've played for at least 2 hours everyday, so I'm gonna give my opinion on it. Dudes. It is, seriously, the best pickup I've ever heard. I *cannot* imagine my guitar sounding any better than what it does. And, bear in mind...

    M7 is ORDERED, on it's way!

    Well, I've plunked down the cash for my M7. After thinking long and hard about it, and considering the various options, I finally did what I always do - said "Screw it!" and went with the impulsive buy :) I know it's an awesome pickup, but when I take my financial situation into consideration...

    Ceramic Warpig vs Lundgren M7

    I... have... MONEY! :metal: So, I have decided to upgrade my recently-purchased RG7321 with new pickups - actually, just one pickup, I'm not rich :) What I'm looking for, ideally, is someone that has played both of these pickups and lived to talk about it. I've been in contact with Tim...

    Got my 7! It SLAYS!

    In the immortal words of Steve-O - "Yeah, dude, I ROCK!" :hbang: Well, I live in South Africa. I last posted last year sometime, where I asked for opinions on the RG7321 and the Omen 7. Needless to say, the Ibby won, hands down. So, 5 months later, I bit the bullet, and bought the 7321, and...

    Options! Ibanez RG7321 vs Schecter Omen 7

    Hey all! I last posted back in 2004, when I was trying to accquire a 7. I live in South Africa, and my funds were (actually, still are) limited, so I was looking for the cheapest, yet still thoroughly decent, 7 string I could find. By all accounts, the RG7321 was the one. Anyways, it all fell...

    Ibanez Rg7321 - is it good?

    Hi there I'm posting this in two other forums, in an attempt to get maximum exposure. Here goes - I want a seven string. I've been playing my Ibanez RG-570 for the past five years, and while I'm no Vai, I'm not bad. I always seem to write stuff that makes me go "man, I wish I had that...
