If you want Hetfield's tone of the past, (Black Album) go for a Miracle Man / Mississippi Queen combo. If you want the drop tuned St. Anger sound, you'll be happier with Warpigs.

Explorer and KK 10 band EQ arrived yesterday.

Explorer, what can I say, for what I paid, very good deal!
It has a few small dings, has turned creme (well it is a '91),has a few v.small nicks down to the wood (but not enough or big enough to worry about) and the back of neck is well worn. Actually, on thorough appraisal it looks no unlike a 'Gibson Limited Signature', that is worn down in all the right places ala copying a famous players guitar.

It plays WONDERFULLY. The neck and frets are sublime and the sustain, OMG goes on for days.

So, today, with lemon oil,solder,soldering iron in hand, surgery began.

What can I say;

Explorer + KK 10 Band EQ + ENGL Half Stack + Custom Calibrated Warpigs = Holy Fu**ing Sh*t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   :twisted:



Good ness only knows what my custom SG with reg. Pigs (still in Texas) sounds like!


TIM, although you already def. know it,

You're  Da Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice one Nick!! You sound pleased as punch man!

Blimey that's guitar has got to sound brutal, the mind boggles at the mayhem that you can do with that!! What gauge strings does the beast have?

I know i need to do clips of my latest pups and will not have a chance yet as I only sneaked on here in between decorating, but Nick, any chance of some clips!! :?:   :lol:

Crank it up? lol
Gotta do a 'sambo' over vol. 3 on ENGL earplugs req., not preffered but REQ.

I will cert. try clips but only brought the Black Box with me (finally sorted ac/ac supply, sheesh) and NOT the pc cable or program :(
Also, my laptop, which has nec. processing power, is still stateside too.

Will do what can though.

Been on this board for , I dunno, bout 6 months now, finally got chance (two sets of BKP's to post) and now cannot right away :(

Ah well, need a pc interface and mic anyway so can record the ENGL itself, shame to use a 'modelling amp' when have that.

So, maybe Firewire Solo and SM57 needed. Dunno. LOT going on her still, and I mean ALOT! :(

Will see if can put on sound cancelling headphones and give ya a blast though Mr. 38 th :)


Let the countryside ANNIHILATION begin  :twisted:

BTW,got 10's on it, never tried heavier and don't like lighter :)
