Well, my ultimate question here is how a higher output pickup will affect my amp soud. I love the Orange sound, but hate too much treble. For dropping to C# and B I need clarity and also for string skipping licks...moving from the 'E' to 'G' = mushyness in C#.
So the Nailbomb kinda nails it. BUT, I agree about low output powered pickups having the TONE and amps doing the donkey work.
Sp I like my existing tone, but would love more clarity and a bit more dirt. I also have my action about 3-4 mm above my bridge, like it raised to hit the buggers hard.
So is Nailbomb + neck way to go>???
Also, sorry for being sick but been struck down with Man Flu™
"moving from the 'E' to 'G' = mushyness in C#."
C# and drop B are my normal tunings and string skip all the time. I use a warpig and overwound (23k) double screwpole miracle man for them in my two main guitars and get nothing but crystal clarity. Thats strung 11 15 19 33 43 60.
Out of my two I'd say the warpig every time and twice on sunday, but I'm sure the nailbomb will be fine. I dont think Tim can make a mushy pickup 8)
