what's your amp/distortion source(s)?
for now a little vox 30 watt valvetronix.......i cant get anything too loud until i move out next year.....But when I get something worthwhile its gonna be a Carvin V3 or peavey JSX probably
hmm
I think a nailbomb or diver will be better then
but if you buy a modern mesa/soldano style amp, get a cold sweat or painkiller instead
ceramics tend to work better with smooth big sounding amps
but with dry and aggressive amps, I prefer alnicos
the maple top + ebony board should be enough to compensate the picking attack
but.. I'm in love with the cold sweat... never though I was gonna like it better than the holy diver, miracle man and painkiller :D
but for leads, harmonics and big open chords, the holy diver is a badass mofo
