New speaker day, guitar repaired, and new pickups

[WezV]

stunning repair!!!

that etching really works...

I really like it, exactly what I wanted. I keep knocking the edge of the ray gun etch though, and it is slowly chipping. But... not really too fussed, it still slays.

My settings for the Miracle men are 6-6-6 :P weird. usually 5-4-6 (with high mid boost EQ), but its so fun to boost the bass on them, and it needs a bit more mids, but don't need the EQ, as its peak is EXACTLY where I want it.

Philly, if you are even thinking of a string clamp, pick it up soon, discontinued a couple of months ago. Wammiworld may have a few left, and it worked out at about £30 ish at most, so not too bad.

Thanks Will, but looks like they've sold out.  I still have the original allen-key clamp anyway, but I'll probably go with my locking tuners idea and see how that works out.

Finally, the sidewinders.
1x12 shitee cab, and the 2 x 10 inch ones. I think that will be a Martamp cab, awaiting funds though :P and if one thing is ordered from him, why not another :D

Looks like a nice job Will  :D

They both look great.

Pickups!

Please tell me that is not the same LP with the orange sparkle painted over.....

[Will]

Yep, don't you like it? :D

[opprobrium_9]

Yep, don't you like it? :D

I'm afraid i think it a gargantuan step down from the previous color.  That orange sparkle was really cool and really unique, but the Zakk Wylde thing you got goin on there just doesn't work for me :(  If it were me i would have kept the orange sparkle, but then, it ain't my decision.

well played, sir. :D  The pickup etching looks awfully similar, though.  Clearly i don't pay enough attention to who owns what guitar, shame on me :lol:

Its the standard rebel yell etching.

You're not alone 0_9 - it got me too :lol:

I couldn't believe someone would've changed that orange-sparkle to that zakk wylde finish, but I decided to keep quiet thinking "well, if he likes it, it's his guitar... :roll:"!!
