Abraxas Bridge - Metal
« on: June 28, 2015, 06:01:28 AM »
Here's a track I did that showcases some of the Abraxas' heavier sides, on rhy and lead.  It's often criticized as being too soft on the low E for drop tuned work, but if you set your amp up right, you can really get away with a lot.

It sounds really good to me, reminds me of the Black Dog a lot.

My Abraxas set arrived this morning and will shortly be installed in my PRS Bernie Marsden SE. If they sound as good as yours I'll be well chuffed.

^Thank you, my friend.  I just can't possibly say enough good things about BK's lineup.
