I love it  man, great tone with the Cold Sweat, it's a much better version of the Dimarzio Air Norton 7.

Cool playing again!
Nice riffing  :twisted:
How would you compare the CS neck and the NB neck?

The best way i can describe it, is a lot clearer, and cleaner. Almost tubular. Your pick attack is very noticeable. While the NB is more mid orientated, ideal for sweeping. While the CS is great for fast alternate picking runs.

Not saying that they dont do the other well, just imagine that type of sound.

Thanks for the description..
tubular, I think I know what you mean. I always think of it as hollow.... :)

Real nice tight riffing, and the leads just sing.

I've been looking at cold sweats and nailbombs too, seems like a combo that really works together well.

I highly recommend it! If you get a chance try the two out together.

Dude, all I have to say is that friggin RULED!  Nailbomb and Cold Sweat 7 string models are in my future.  Thanks for sharing your stuff.  I think this clip is going to be making appearances often in my daily playlist at work.

Later,
Jeff

I've got a question as I am about to buy the same pickup combination for my Les Paul:
AFAIK the cold sweat is a ceramic magnet humbucker and the Nailbomb an Alnico V... so is there any problem mixing two kinds of magnets (maybe weird sound...dunno when you play both at the same time)? Do I have to order a special ceramic Nailbomb or doesn't it matter at all?

The Cold Sweat neck pickup is A5, only the Cold Sweat bridge pickup is ceramic. So a CS/NB combo is both A5, but a NB/CS combo is A5/ceramic.
