Any chance of an early Iommi voiced Mississippi Queen - that would be such a cool thing to stick in a SG. You could call it the Evil Woman!

It would be the Mississippi Hog :lol: I have a Pig-90 which is the old Iommi tone, I would think that they can put that into an MQ case. Perhaps it would be the Evil Woman 8)

Ooo, fun! :) Some other name ideas: The "Hand of Doom"? "The Wizard"!

Howabout the Iron Man, or the NIB. As phil says though, I always thought the Pig 90 was the Iommi style pickup

I vote for Iron Man.

Mmm, yes, the "Iron Man" would be a good name! :twisted:

That would be sweet actually. Although, if it was called iron man it would have to have a fitting cover - maybe like the nailbomb ones. Damn. Now I want one. And an SG to put it in.

Hmm, yes, maybe I should modify my fantasy of an SG with a Warpig set to a Warpig bridge/Iron Man neck? :)

No, you shouldn't. You should modify it to two SGs, one with a set of warpigs and one with a set of these iron men. It wouldn't be much of a fantasy if it only included one warpig, would it?

I'd like to have a guitar with a WarMan/IronPig set... :roll:

'iron man' is quite a blatant name though isn't it ;) i like 'evil woman' - much more subtle ;)

i wonder also if a humbucker sized pig90 would be a possibility. maybe its my confused delirum, but i think i remember reading that bkp-92 isn't possible in a humbucker size..

EDIT 1:
well, i just read this so ;)

Even if a P92 can't fit in a MQ case - could a MQ be voiced to be early Iommi sounding?

_tom_ · « **Reply #12 on:** February 09, 2006, 07:29:33 PM »

Bah Iron Man is blatently the best name for an Iommi inspired pickup 8) With a distressed cover it'd be killer!

And a huge black celtic cross as a graffic!

Everybody now:
dah - dah -da-da-dah

You're right! But hey, why stop there? My fantasy should step on up to a brace of 3-pickup SGs loaded with a whole herd of 'Pigs! :)
