    Need help with a 7-string single install

    I have an Ormsby SX 7-string, comes as HS, thought the neck single coil was a bit weak (understandably so), and I went for a pickup change, so I went for a Hot Rails 7-string from SD Custom shop for the the neck. Now, this is not a cheap pickup, it's $200, but this is the 1st time in my long...

    Which one of these pickups? Help, please

    Cant decide..Ltd NW44 or PRS Mark Holcomb SE

    Ive played the latter of the two and it felt amazing. Looks cool, sound is off the charts, and just feels like a good instrument. I love periphery and I love ADTR. Ive always wanted an eclipse but never got along with the 24.75 scale length plus the usual emgs they would throw in. Theyre very...

    Hi! I'm planning to buy a new bridge humbucker for my Jackson SLATXM 7. It's a basswood body, with a through-body maple neck, floyd rose, 7 strings guitar. She already have a Nazgul. It sounds powerful for rythm, but i'm not entirely satisfied : it's lifeless, too mid-focused and the chord...

    Looking for a solid passive 7 string

    I'm looking to get a Les Paul kind of tone out of it. I'm thinking something along the lines of a PAF or something, maybe a little hotter. Would like to stick to Alnico, just something somewhat warm and well rounded. Something that can pull off everything from early 2000s hard rock to modern...

    Are fishman pickups for me?

    I have a Jackson USA Soloist with a SD JB/59' and I cannot get along with them. I have tried screwing around with the PU height, strings, amp, pedals, etc. and it is just not really my PU. In fact the 59' just SUCKS for leads and cleans it is disgusting IMO. Sure I know this is the industry...

    Seymour Duncan Omega/Sentient?

    Anyone had this idea before? Never heard anyone saying that they used this combo or even thought about it, the thing is, I really love the Omega but hate the Alpha (too sparkly and not creamy at all), the sentient would be the logical substitution since it has that creaminess that every neck...

    First (re)build: Tele-Thing

    Hi, All. This story probably starts around 2004, when I upgraded from an old "Cheri" Strat knockoff to the "mighty" Cort X-11 (to be sold a year later in favour of a brand new Ibanez RG2570), and found out that "custom shop" is a thing. Back then, I knew EXACTLY what I wanted in a guitar - at...
