BKP Aftermath 8 - too twangy...

[J_Mac]

In my 27" Skervesen Tamandua 8 string, the bridge Aftermath is just to twangy and harsh with high gain stuff (Axe FX) :/ can anyone recommend something fizzier?

fizzy?

maybe the lace deathbar or xbar?

failing that for some reason i think of dimarzio when i think fizzy

Cool man, cheers. I think the guitar itself has a lot of attack which may be the bulk of the problem.

Hi, i had aftermaths in my ash bodied, maple neck 8 and got the ....s with them for the same thing. I've since moved on via c-pigs and m8s to juggernauts and am really happy with them. I wouldn't describe them as fizzy at all but i don't think it would be too hard to change that with the appropriate patch on your fractal.

I think cab selection has a lot to do with fizzyness honestly.

Didn't like the Aftermath at all. Lundgren is a good place to look.

Great, thanks dudes \m/

I'll keep my eyes peeled for these second hand

While you're waiting for something used to pop up try a 250k pot with the current pickup, it might do the trick

 

[J_Mac]

Ah ok, never thought of that! Ta dude.

Maybe turn up the gain, since its an ax I can reccommend you make a new high gain patch and listen where fizz is coming from and turn it down with an eq it up.

Yeah I've spent hours with it I have a patch for each guitar, I love the Axe but sometimes it's a bummer that you can't simply rock up to a jam with a new slab and sound good straight away. Kinda miss tube amps for that.

I actually love the Aftermaths and I'm looking for a set of used 8s, so if you guys have an 8 and plan to sell the Aftermaths send me a pm

I certainly do. And certainly will!

I'm tempted by the cheap and cheerful Ionisers... unless something nicer pops up like M8...

I certainly do. And certainly will!

I will count on that I'm building an 8 soon and would be great to get your aftermaths
