Aftermath comparisons in Basswood and Mahogany - VIDEOS!

[Djentleman!]

Hey guys, I recently did two in-depth sound tests of my new Aftermaths in the two guitars that I put them in: an Ibanez JS1200 (basswood) and a PRS Custom 24 (mahogany/maple). I do distorted and clean in-depth for each guitar along with the various sound possibilities that the individual guitars can allow. The JS's coil tapping and EQ switch REALLY make a difference in the sound of the PUPs - note that I actually switched around the PUP from it's standard location so that the coil split is directly next to the bridge.

I do apologize for the random clipping when I do palm mutes or "chugs", my video recording software is shiteee! All tones are direct-in to POD Farm and nothing is adjusted throughout the videos, everything you hear is the same tones and settings (cept for the clean and distorted tones being different lol).

Also I covered the solo to Periphery's "Luck as a Constant" in both videos, Misha Mansoor's parts only. The Ibanez one came out mediocre, I did it more to demonstrate the difference between the PAF Joe and the Aftermath neck, but the one in the PRS video is actually decent.

2008, got it for a decent price at Guitar Center in 2011. The second I picked it up I knew I had to have it, and judging by your name I have a hunch you know exactly what I mean  :D

Sometimes it feels like the guitar chooses the player. It was the same with my PRS Custom (a 24 fret model, only at that time the 24 was not part of the model name).
