master of puppets tone?

[dani]

mark iic+ and parametric eq aside, will the c-pig or holydiver get close to metallica's mop's tone and response?

iirc, hetfield was still using invaders on mop yes?

[ericsabbath]

I'd pick the cold sweat or the ceramic nailbomb

[Madsakre]

i would pick a miracle man

[dani]

tried both nailbomb and miracle man and they didn't achieve what i was looking for. the nailbomb was too loose where the miracle man is scooped and more suited for the justice tone.

guessed that left me with the c-pig, holydiver and rebel yell.

No doubt Miracle Man will do job well....

yeah you can set it higher to the strings, and turn up the mids a little on the amp.

James mainly used for that MOP era two guitars Flying V with SD invader and Explorer with EMG 81...So you could try C Pig or Painkiller as well..They used /modded/ Mark IIC+ just as preamps slaved them to JPM/JCM heads /used as power amps/...They used Mesa Quad preamps,Furman EQs and Marshall cabs as well...I think tese things are more important than pickups....

scooped mids = miracle man

metallica =scooped mids = miracle man

i think a painkiller or a warpig will sound better IMOP, but i dont like scooped mids

I'd also say the Miracle Man works the best.
