Hey guys, I just sold my set of blackouts (7 string version) and thought I would record a clip to have for future comparisons. I also wanted to compare it directly to a full shred with an alnico 8 magnet thats currently in my Jackson SLSMG. The pickup to replace the blackouts will be a BKP Painkiller with an alnico 8 magnet, 7 string. I love the sound of A8s. I will record another clip when it arrives. So, here are the two clips I recorded (320kbps mp3's)-
test1.mp3
test2.mp3
Will keep them anonymous for now, post your guesses!
Recorded with line6 junk, with this patch- Meshuggah1.l6t
Was trying to make a patch for their tone, thats what I came up with and decided to use it. Must have the Metal Shop pack. It seems to really accentuate the low end, and its easier to hear how tight a pickup is and its high end qualities. I can record with diff. patches, etc if you guys want, but I wont be able to record with the blackouts because they are coming out very soon for shipping.
Gear details:
Line6 Guitarport using Gearbox, recorded with Nuendo, no processing from Nuendo at all.
Fernandes Revolver Pro 7, set of blackouts in respective positions. Rosewood board/maple neck, alder body, floyd rose.
Jackson SLSMG with two Seymour Duncan Full Shreds, with an alnico 8 in the bridge pickup. Mahogany neck-thru, ebony board, tonepros bridge.
Both guitars are setup with D'Addario 10-52's, with a low .060 for the Bb. The Jackson obviously does not use the high Bb .010 string.
