You thought Stitch's RG7 was epic. You thought JJ's sex of gear was epic. You might have thought that your picstory was pretty damn good. Lemme ask you a question: have you known my dreams? If you have...
As a community, I think I can safely say a good majority of us enjoy metal. With that I should say that at least a few have/have had awesome beards or facial hair. Remember, you're not yet a man until you've grown a beard!

Ok, so I ordered a Zakk Wylde pickup set last December for my RG1570. This the epic tale of an uphill struggle to get them in.
Basically I put up with the stock pups for 3 years and couldn't take it anymore. So out they go.
