Title: BKP for swamp ash Regius 6
Post by: AndreasRJ on December 23, 2012, 04:07:40 PM

Hi everybody

I'm buying a Regius, and I'm going to be putting BKPs in it pretty soon after I get it. I mainly like to play melodic death metal(Mors Principium Est, Dark Tranquility, Arch Enemy etc.), progressive rock/metal(Opeth, Tool, Mastodon etc.) and some death metal. BUT since my death metal band parted ways, I've started forming a rock band with some friends.
We are going to write songs in the style of Bon Jovi, Europe, Def Leppard and bands like that and I need to be able to cover that to with the Regius.

If just for my usual metal needs I would probrably get an aftermath, but it's inherent angry character would probrably be to much.

What bridge BKP would you recommend me, that will be able to do rock without being to aggressive and metal and still do metal very convincingly?
For the neck, I'm pretty set on a cold sweat, but I'm considering an aftermath

Nailbomb (alnico) - CS-neck would serve you well.

I have a Nailbomb (Alnico) in my Swampashbodied Voodoo LesPaul. It works very well. I had a Holy Diver, JB and Miracle Man in there first, the Nailbomb IMO worked best for me.

Another one for the A-Bomb. I have one in the bridge of my Les Paul Standard and it fits the bill perfectly.
