Just how tight is the ceramic warpig?
« on: November 15, 2006, 08:22:32 PM »
I'm thinking about getting a 7 string for b tunning. I'm going for a tone like on Monotheist by Celtic Frost.  $%&#ing giant bass, like, ground shaking low end, thick mids and sharp but not too harsh high end, with gain that will make your rig sound like its about to blow up into a wave of feedback that will kill everything in sight but never actually does.  Overkill. I need the bass to be sergicaly tight. I want the bass to sound like its wrapping around the strings of my guitar and bounces right off the pick.  I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about.

Now, I've heard that the ceramic warpig has that bone crushing low end and is very tight, but how tight is it to a EMG 81 or a Miracle Man?  Remember I'm going to be using it in E + low B tuning. Standard 7 string. I might drop it to A at times also.  I want it to be really tight.  The Miracle Man can probably tight enough but from the sound clips the low end isn't big enough. Comes of more like what you hear on Ride the Lightning by Metallica. I'm looking for Reign in Blood by slayer tight or a tight version of Korn. Zerstoren my Rammstein is another good example also. Darker and thicker than the MM.

Tight as a gnats chuff. Not that I've ever....moving on....

Utterly surgical, and unlike most other tight pickups, utterly brutal and utterly clear.

And I play mine in c# and drop b, 11, 15, 19, 33, 43, 60.

Its exactly what you need.

Put it this way, I've never been bought a pint by one.
I see a rainbow rising
Look there on the horizon
And I'm coming home

Are they more brutal than a regular Warpig and in what way? I've got two ceramic pups already, so for my next project I thought the Alnico V might be more sort of organic. I want to de-tune down to C or C# too with that pawnshop Schecter Omen 6 and give it a pet name!

from the movie EuroTrip:
So I tell the swamp donkey to sock it before I give her a trunky in the tradesman's entrance and have her lick me yarbles!


Always wondered what that translated to  8)

Here goes....

So I tell the swamp donkey (ugly girl) to sock it (suck it?) before I give her a trunky (?) in the tradesman's entrance (place my penis in her anus) and have her lick me yarbles! (?... balls I would guess....)

If you want to go for the difference of A5 the WP is plenty brutal.

The difference is the proverbial tighter bas, sharper treble, smoother mids, it sounds overall more aggressive and attacking.
