Title: Starting The Merry Pickup Go Round...
Post by: Afghan Dave on July 24, 2009, 04:57:56 PM: Well, I've decided to move ONE pickup into a new guitar and as a result...

I have to damn well move one round from each of my guitars to restore balance

I get obsessive about things being "right" and then dig a big hole for myself...

It would help if I wasn't the worlds worst solderer! Grrrrr PDT_049 PDT_046 PDT_038 PDT_050

Post by: Afghan Dave on July 24, 2009, 07:44:00 PM: I've got two new pickups (not BKP this time) coming but that's adding to the confusion... :?

Post by: Jonny on July 24, 2009, 08:11:47 PM: Wait, so you have spare pickups and want to replace stock pickups with those spare pickups but you have to jumble the other pickups around?

Post by: Afghan Dave on July 24, 2009, 08:19:18 PM: Well....

I've got a "very special" little axe on the way and I want to use one of my current pickups in that, so...

I have to move my Miracle Man from my Vandenberg to the BC Rich Gunslinger... The Super Distortion to the RG570... The warpig to....

Ya get the idea... Long day ahead...

Is this special axe from Jonathan?

Haha, I can fully understand you. Once I had the soldering iron out I had to check some more solders on other guitars "just to make sure". :D

Post by: Brow on July 26, 2009, 07:32:57 PM: Sounds like fun! :lol:

How you liking the Gunslinger btw? I still have MAJOR gas for 1 of the yellow 1s :)
Title: Re: Starting The Merry Pickup Go Round...
Post by: Afghan Dave on July 26, 2009, 07:43:39 PM: The Gunslinger is simply fantastic IMHO.

It feels good, it sounds good and it sure looks good.

I would buy a Red one second as a spare if I had a little money washing around.

NICE... Come to think of it I have been called a silly solder quite often.

Post by: murraymurray on July 26, 2009, 10:00:39 PM: I hate it when that happens, ive got the urge at the moment to move my painkiller, then id have to move my nailbombs, then id have to move my SD's then id have to move....... then id probably have to buy something new since the last in line doesnt really work with the guitar pickup combo of whats left over.

and yeah what are those gunslingers like? whats the neck like and is a OFR or some stink licensed one?

Post by: Afghan Dave on July 27, 2009, 09:22:53 PM: DONE IT!!!

The Miracle Man sounds awesome in the Gunslinger - (I thought the Dimarzio Super Distortion was good in it but the BKP F**kin' rocks)

The Gunslinger has the PING Floyd Rose BTW - The only Japan OFR.
