Yes... Don't like the tones I had on PODxt, never could have a real punchy and full tone... always that fizzy and thin unorganig sound (but I played it with headsphones, may be one of reasons)

yeah, in my feline V cold sweats were both dark and bright. in my maple neck through steinberger copy, they sound bright in a sort of iron maiden way. great pickups anyway.

i've played my SG a bit more and on tubes too (though with all the keyboard noise going on - god if i hate obtrusive keyboards - and with the awful buzzing coming from the other guitarist - god if i hate buzzing trebly guitar tones -  it's hard to judge...), and i've to say that my appreciation for bridge CS is growing rapidly...

Is that single-coil buzz, or just bumblebee-in-a-jar guitar tone?

the previous guitarist of the band (with whom i have played for a couple of months) played a jar full of bumblebees... the new rhythm guitarist has got a more "industrial" and less organic kind of sound: hammers being rhythmically beaten on rusted iron waste. very tasty.  :)
i tried - with his permission - to make his rig sound less ear piercing and obtained an almost nice smoother sound with some bass and mid in it, but he returned to his setting in a couple of minutes. he couldn't hear himself, he said.
