rob_l strikes back!
Well, not this time!
So where do I start?
Let's start with the boring stuff
NPRD (New Pickup Rings Day)
A little while back I posted a thread of my scratched up Carvin after I got it back from the tech that was supposed to just swap the bridge-pickup.
Gave it to another guy that fixed it up and we decided to put on some rings to hide the biggest dent and then just fix the small scratches, good as new. I'm actually really happy with how it came out!
Swapped the Dimarzio x2n for a BKP Painkiller. The x2n was a really cool pickup, but not quite what I was looking for, thanks to Zimbloth I found exactly what I was looking for
To bad they weren't offering 7-string covers at the time
Pics!
Some additional pics there, just because I'm such a show-off
Next, NPD(x2) & NND (New Neck Day)
My good old Fender... eh.. I guess we can call it Fervin now. My first guitar, this one have been through A LOT since I got it, I think it's only the body that is left of it really, haha. But now it's PERFECT! I've just never wanted to sell it because I've always liked how it sounded, but not how it played, after I got my 2nd guitar anyway
How it used to look:
New Carvin Neck!
Looked really metal with the new neck so I wanted the pickups to match. I was really unsure about swapping the SD SH-1 though, because I loved that one, but I could always swap it back in so didn't really have anything to lose. Wanted something that was a little more metal but still could do the rock, as this is kinda my rock-guitar Tim recommended me the nailbombs, perfect!
Also placed the killswitch where I originally wanted it AND throw in a piezo while I was at it + get rid of the midi thing... you'll see why soon And even get rid of the tremolo as it really wasn't any good at all. Either OFR or nothing, right?
PICS!
So I posted this thread a year ago or something. Saying this was my very last guitar for a couple of decades, and I meant it!
I didn't get it until recently though, Elysian knew how to spend time installing the graphtech ghost system in it. So thanks to Adam I got another guitar before I got my VERY LAST ONE. It has also been posted before here though. I don't got much more to add to what has already been said there, except for awesome high quality pictures of course!
So here you have it, of both of them. They kinda match, doesn't they?
I can only say I'm EXTREMELY happy with both of them. And my TIL8 is pretty happy too. Now it can take a little break:
It hurts to see it suffer like that because I'm so selfish and just can't stop playing it so it's getting scars and everything
I actually had quite a photo-shoot with all of my guitars today:
Looks more like a massacre here though.
Ahhh... All lined up in place again.
The End. No more NGD's from this guy
