Title: Painkiller + Coldsweat incoming
Post by: GuitarIv on February 25, 2013, 12:15:32 AM

Well... I'm not sure if I will regret this or not, but I have placed an order for a Painkiller Bridge and a Coldsweat Neck.
Having unexpectedly some money on the side comes as a nice surprise and good fuel for my G.A.S., and after reading thousands of threads, thinking way too long about what to get next, I decided to trust my feeling and here we go. I will post a review as soon as the package from England arrives :D

I ordered them with the Black Battleworn Finish, Black Hex Screws and they will replace the way too muddy and dark Invaders in my Jackson Fusion Pro.
I tried out the Holydiver in it and I liked it, but I wanted something more modern and in your face sounding, apparently the Mahogany Body should help to make the PK sound less harsh than some people describe it, even though I'm only downtuned to E-Flat on that axe.

I will let you know what my impressions are asap!

Cheers

How did you like this combo? From what I've read so far, this pair sounds like it'd be perfect for my playstyle. Post a sound clip if ya can =) Enjoy!

Hey Eric, had a look at the video and when he sais Painkiller bridge a "*Nailbomb* appears on screen, so I guess the Nailbomb is the better Painkiller? Hate it when people in those videos make such mistakes.
