I've just dropped them an email, so we'll see what the suggestions are.  I've actually decided to keep the Rolling Mill in the neck - I was playing around with different sounds and it actually cleans up really nicely and get a pretty full and warm distortion sound.  For this RG I'm thinking of the Warpig as an almost definite, but need SC suggestions.  My other one will probably be treated to a pair of Nailbombs, although I like the idea of a nice ceramic like in the Painkiller?  Which one would work best (yes, I do have 2 RG's getting treated lol, although the second is H-H)?

Might get the ceramic NB in my Prestige - tempting, but it might be a little compressed.

Ordered a ceramic Warpig and a Trilogy Suite for my RG470 on Tim's recommendation.  Looking forward to giving them a go.

Its a bit compressed. Not terribly so. More so than the A-Bomb or PK.

Compression isnt a hallmark of any BK; you have to get up to the C-Pig to get proper capital C Compressed.

you often point out how little compressed is the PK, but i always found it more compressed than other BKPs... but maybe i mistake its extremely percussive attack for compression. anyway it does "boing" on every clean note... :)

Dunno what to tell you mate. Its not compressed for a pickup thats as hot as it is, is my normal line, and I stand by it.

It is compressed, to a degree, in the grand scheme of things. A little moreso than a nailbomb, less than a miracle man or c-bomb. I think anyway. You have all those pickups as well, so judge for yourself :)

Congrats on the C-Pig and TS. I've had my C-Pig for a bit longer now and I'm only appreciating it more every day. I hope you like it as much as I do.  :D
