But how can you tell if you have a dark sounding guitar? I mean I can tell my Tele is bright because of the way the notes krang out unplugged, but I find that identifying dark guitars is harder...

wrt/ my own SG, just comparing it with a couple others (SGs, I mean) made the case quite clear ;)

Why choose ? ABomb bridge + Mule neck FTW :twisted:

Haha but I'm not sure if they will suit eachother

Well...  possibly not the most balanced set when it comes to output levels :lol: - but they match better than you would imagine. As far as I'm concerned, it's not a problem since I tend to use the bridge / middle positions for crunch to massive overdrive and the neck / middle position for pristine clean to bluesy crunch, and I like my drive tone to be louder than the clean one anyway., but YMMV ;)
