I don't know about the bridge, but I have one in the neck of my Carvin 7 string and I absolutely love it.

john sykes indeed - but they sound more 'blue murder' than 'thin lizzy' to my ears. with brutal gain they start to sound like the Judas Priest album 'Defenders Of The Faith'

On these recordings all of the rhythm guitars are Cold Sweat:

I don't do the John Sykes thing (I'm more of an Adrian Smith style player), but I love the Cold Sweat!

They're excellent, and on my PRS very much like that Sykes tone.
