Sounds good !
Isn't it the C-NB too bright, compared at least to those CS and even PK ?
And does the C-NB keep the same voicing and organic qualities of the stock NB (as much as can a Ceramic) ? I mean does it just tighten the bass and sharpen the high or does it also smoothen the mids alot ?
I am asking that because the CS is known to be very balanced and clear with rather a neutral EQ (with very smooth mids) that never color the natural sound of the guitar (correct me if I am wrong) so if the C-NB ressemble a hotter but darker CS I was wondering if it will loose a lot from the voicing of the stock NB....
the cold sweat DOES color the natural sound
a LOT, if you ask me
it just doesn't change the main voicing of the wood like most of the other models do
no bass or mid boost or cut
but it adds that nice "slightly driven boost" feel, that makes the midrange crunch and the highs a bit brighter
and that's what is great about it!
not that it muds or distorts anything, but it has a built-in mojo crunch :lol:
something like the miracle man does to the low mids only, but the miracle man affects the whole shape of the tone and distorts a little more in that specific frequency range (that huge grinding roar on the low mids, but keeping the bottom end and highs all clean)
that's why I like them more than the painkiller, which is pretty "wild" and loud on the mids, but somehow it's "cleaner"
