so i just saw "between the buried and me" live. needless to say, life changing event.
so much so that i have completely changed my direction as far as one guitar goes.
i have a super strat style body (H-S-H) swamp ash, tune-o-matic/stoptail bridge, and im basically chasing paul waggoners tone.
essentially what im after is a bridge HB that is capable of his rhythm tone, then a neck HB that can somewhat replicate his lead tone/clean jazzy influenced stuff. then a single coil mid (which is slanted btw) to balance it all out. was also thinking of putting a piezo bridge and maybe mixing the single coil with that.
i hope this doesnt sound tooooo stupid. it kind of makes sense to me... :?

I also saw btbam live recently and it just increased my beer input to get through this progmetal for mall-kiddies... Sorry but I don't luike the band at all! Regardless the guitar tone is good.
A Nailbom Bridge paired with a Cold Sweat Neck should get you pretty close to those tones.

I agree on all counts and would second that a nailbomb coldsweat set would suit this pretentious try-too-hard bands tone very well.

well.. didnt quite expect a response like that.
but, i guess personal taste is just that. and we'll leave it there so it doesnt have to get moved to a different forum/discussion.
yeah i figured the nailbomb was a shoe-in for the bridge, but hadnt considered the cold sweat. but now im really digging the idea. what are your thoughts on a single coil in the middle to go with them? since i have the space, might aswell use it.
also on the single coil, given the route is angled, how would this affect my selection?

Something thats similar in output and balances in tone would be an Irish tour
