Wow, I really liked all of these clips

In the non-boosted one I felt that the MM had a slight edge on the WP, whereas in the boosted one I liked the WP better.

What guitar are they in?  The SG Standard in your photo???

[wolfenstein]

hi...I donīt have that sg anymore...Itīs not 100% accurate comparison because warpig is loaded in alder/maple LTD MFA 600 Viper and miracle man is in all mahogany Viper 400...IMM in alder/maple Viper would sound propably brighter too...thanx for listening mate...

[Dave Sloven]

OK, thanks ... did you ever try the Warpig in the Viper 400?  I have a WP sitting around doing nothing while there's a Viper 400 at the local shop going for half price ...

[wolfenstein]

grab it mate...you canīt find better guitar in this price range...It smokes gibby in every aspect...itīs extremely resonant and build very well...400 series is actualy same as 1000 de luxe but without these extra features as binding and tone pros hard ware...I found every pickup I had in it sounded good no matter what magnet type or output level...cheers

I guess it is amplitube, but they sound awfully similar. Very difficult to discern any differences.

The thing that worries me with the LTD Viper 400 is the string spacing on the bridge and the leg length - what did you use?  My set is 50mm long leg, open coil with black bolts.

Also, what do you think of the TM-600 (Atreyu sig) version with the FR?

It would be fine...I use 50 mm spacing and long legs too without issue...Wider 53 mm spacing is used on guitars with floyd rose...I checked the Viper TM-600...It has couple of nice features as longer scale maple neck and afterburner but Iīm not big fan of FR on SGīs and LPīs...She just looks better without

dont worry about the poles not matching up with the strings. its really not that big of a deal. mostly aesthetic. when i had the juggernaut in the les paul it was a wide spaced pickup and it still worked well

Same here. But good tone and serious riffing.
