Cheers Tim!

Now I've just got to decide what guitar to put it/them in, or buy another specially

A brief update...

I've just bought a Gordon Smith GS-1 already fitted with a Warpig, so I'll see how that sounds when it srrives :D

I'll probably then order a Mule to try in comparison. Thanks for everyone's help!

Cool. Some people have reported getting on well with a Warpig bridge and Mule neck, though the difference in output seems a little extreme to me. But whatever you do, you might as well hang on to the Warpig -- at worst, you'll just need to get another guitar to put it in. :twisted:

Mmm, I just need an SG to load with 'Pigs and a Tele to load with Country Boys. That would cover some ground :)

Carlaz,

The GS-1 is a single pickup twin cutaway guitar (like an early sixties SG Junior) so it'll just be the 'Pig OR a Mule but not both. I'm going to see how the 'Pig sounds and take it from there.

Knowing me I'll like it as it is, then I'll have to get a Mule (or Mules) to try in something else!

I'm very tempted to get a set of Mules for my HCSB Les Paul Standard (Slash/Hawkins tone) and a Riff Raff for my Cherry Red Gordon Smith SG-1 (Angus tone)...

Ah! Now I understand ... but the description also makes me think: Mississippi Queen! :)

Sound like solid plans!

Sounds like a good plan to me!
