I decided to start a new thread as I didn't want to hijack another's!
Same question, as below:
Those in the know, I have a Jackson DK2M which has an alder body, maple neck and maple fretboard, licensed floyd rose bridge, 11-60 strings and seymour duncan blackout pickups (the original ones). I'm in the same boat as user:kylendm in terms of the bands sounds he's describing (to a certain degree) and this guitar is mostly tuned to drop B. I also play a randall rm100. Would the nailbomb be best for me? (perhaps with a ceramic magnet?) I find the blackout too "boxy" in a sense, I had trouble describing it on another forum as well, but it's not the sound I'm after. I want something that'll sing with smooth sustain in the highs and be really tight and defined with a lot of attack in the lows.
Thanks guys.
