by the way, hello, i'm new here :) (excuse my spelling please)

i'm searching for a good metal tone, something with a heavy bite to it but not too bassy. think megadeth on their last album and on 'countdown to extinction'. also, it needs to be able to produce chugging riffs a la slayer and metallica.

also, do you send orders to foreign countries? namely, israel?

Hi genz,
    We can ship anywhere in the world, we've sent a few to Israel.
For a good metal tone, check out the Nailbomb, Miracle man or Warpig.
Have you listened to the clips in the players room?
Let us know what you think.

Welcome to the forum!

cool, thanks. heard all three and i'm at torn between the warpig and the nailbomb. would the warpig sound too bassy on a mahogony body guitar?
and i also just saw that there is the painkiller in the making. sounds right for me...

by the way, since all the pickups are named after songs/bands, who's song is the miracle man? great idea for pickup branding, much more helpful than random numbers and letters...

Miracle Man is an Ozzy song, Zakk Wylde on guitar. :)

The Warpig sounds great in Mahogony guitars, Ive got one in a mahogony Ibanez RG.
What kind of guitar are you planning on putting them in?

^^oh yeah, i actually heard tht song...lol forgot about that, thanks.

^i'm putting them in a washburn V. mahogony body with a rosewood fingerboard.

will a coverless warpig be cheaper? is there an option for that?
