No, Nick Bowcott was a lefty.The Hellion guy was the upside down tapper.

Yep, one of the few well-known southpaw guitarists.

Nick Bowcott is currently Director of Marketing and Artist Relations at Marshall USA, having previously held the same position at Jackson/Charvel, so some of you have probably seen him at industry events.  Here's a recent video of him promoting the Yngwie Malmsteen signature amp.

Hi, great demo that's really got me interested in a set of Nailbombs. Just wondering though which version of the pickup were you using - Alnico or Ceramic?

I'm pretty sure it is the original alnico version.  The ceramic model is more recent, and was apparently called a 'custom' for a while (same with the ceramic version of the Warpig) until it became a common enough order (like the Pig 90 too) that it became a production variant.  The pickup in this sample also has the characteristic mids of the A-bomb.
