In regard to the warpig is that primarily designed for detuned thrash chord work how does it solo as that is my main area.
As I'm quite new here I'm curious about the Warpig too. A mate of mine uses one in an HSS Strat and it certainly thickens up that guitar but he's a strictly Metalhead doing lots of rhythm work so I'm not sure how good it is for solo work. When I first visited this site the EQ charts suggested this was all bass and therefore probably wasn't a lead pickup so I dismissed it but I've since read a lot about how versatile it is. This raises a couple of questions for me that may well be relevant to the OP. Firstly, just how effective is it at lead work and secondly, just how good is it at non-extreme material like Whitesnake, Iron Maiden etc.? The clips on the website seem restricted to Modern Metal and in the hands of a Warpig, it seems to just be very brutal Modern Metal.
