Zebra pickups should be banned

I used to not care whatsoever about them. Wouldnt go out of my way for them. But i dont feel like putting another set of pickups in my R9 rn so they will continue to stay. Also i think zebra looks better guard off in my specific case.

These were supposed to be double cream but the manufacturer didnt match them well and i was tired of waiting for expensive (to me) pickups:

My experience on live circles has usually been somewhat like:
- Hard rock dudes: Laid back, cool, they just want to party and drink
- Metalheads: Full of themselves.

There's still a lot of elitism about "technically inferior" genres wether people admit it or not.

Technically inferior = more money & more women

Technically superior = less money & more dudes

It's sad, but true.

If your tone isn't tested in a mix then it's not worth shit and I don't give a fuck.

If you haven't proven your crackpot theories about tone woods, pickups, tubes etc with a mix test then it's not worth shit and I don't give a fuck.

This opinion is popular with me

Tube amps -> tougher to get decent high gain tones -> no mistakes forgiven -> makes you better player...
