    Pickup suggestion for 80's glassy tones (HS Configuration)

    Cruisers, EMG SA, whatever pickup actually as long as you compress the hell out of it and even add a trichorus in the chain.

    Ibanez in-house strings?

    I tried Ibanez bass strings. Overall they were great but felt very rough and scratchy.

    Reminds me of Blackmore adding mystery secret screws on his headstock to piss people off

    NGD/Review: Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci Signature Majesty (Artisan Marrone)

    I had the exact same model and it was amazing, couldn't find one with the rosso finish. The gold plated hardware worried me too but I sold it way before it started to wear.

    Higher output pickup options from Lace?

    I installed a second set of deathbuckers and alumitones on my Strandberg NX6, this time with 250k potentiometers. This gets rid all the fizz often associated with these pickups, couldn't be happier. Now my OS7 with 500k pots sounds abrasive.

    Fender Tom DeLonge Stratocaster - Reissue

    Apparently with the new satin neck and poor QC these feel really close to the Squier FSR hardtail they did in september. I'm glad I bought one then and slammed an invader. I remember the early 00's when people used to shit on the TD, now everybody wants one. Never underestimate frustrated teens...

    Higher output pickup options from Lace?

    Pretty unpopular here on SSO but I really like the Deathbar in my Strandberg. It's powerful, dynamic and very clear though you may want to cut some of the hiss with an EQ (bear in mind my guitar has 500k pots while Lace recommends 250k). Although it is a very dynamic pickup, the playing feel can...

    The .strandberg* Thread

    I own 4 Bodens and they're my favorite instruments ever so I guess I get the fanboi status. Apparently I got lucky with mine. Never had to send them back or whatever. Though the new direction the brand took with the NX series pisses me a little bit. They ditched some features (roasted necks...

    Strandberg News

    About production models, if I may : 2015-2016 : Korea. 2017 : Korea except for the classics which were made in China. since mid-2018 : Indonesia only. So I'm hoping they won't go "full China".

    Quality Ergonomic Guitars

    I believe most J Bodens have solid bodies, if chambering is a must for OP.

    Anyone Keep Going Back To EMG?

    Most of EMG pickups seem to be unavailable in Europe, Thomann says 5 to 7 weeks for most models. Where are you guys getting yours from?

    Nolly signature "Polymath" BKPs

    Not a Nolly fan and I guess it makes sense marketing wise but I can't shake this feeling that BKP are really parodying themselves with those. Big artist name + the lows are huge but tight, the mids are roaring but defined and the highs present but not ice picky + gamer etching + oh it's out best...
