The NAILBOMB!..... a verstitile modern creation? or not?

Mahogany single cut + nailbomb = extreme versitillity and tone quality? or is it just a metal monster that would rather digest its-self than think about performing with a clean setting??????

This would be a more valid pole for the warpig.

Reason being that everyone will pick "suprisingly versatile".

Its IS suprisingly versatile.

And so is the warpig, but less so.

Agree with MDV, and certainly picked suprisingly versatile from what I've heard. But dare I say both really.

I was going to vote until I realised that 'both' wasn't an option!!

The Nailbomb is a miracle of modern engineering :)

As I said in my first impressions post, how can something that's so clear & dynamic on the clean channel transform itself so effortlessly into an absolute ANIMAL when I tread on the channel switch? :twisted: :)

Classic rock definitely.  Blues isn't really my thing, so I won't comment on that.

Listen to the Steve Stevens clip in the Players forum - the opening riff is meat & drink to the Nailbomb.  Note: I'm NOT saying that the NB sounds like the Rebel Yell, but that the NB handles that sort of loose, wide open, percussive riffing style very well.
