The Warpig neck has a screaming lead tone so I would advise you stick with that. The Nailbomb is more of an old school metal sound, think sepultura kind of tone. The Warpig is much more of a modern metal tone whereas I think the miracle man is like Zakk and Dimebags tone.
Man, I had thought Zakk and Dimebag were modern metal! :) I've only just gotten my head around the idea that Sepultura must be old school these days. (I keep thinking that, like, NWOBHM bands are old school, but I guess they must actually be Jurassic School by now ;)).
Where's that wall-of-warm-molasses Kyuss tone then? 8)
One of the problems I find in listening for people with great tone is that everyone with great tone plays so much better than me! But equally, loads of music that I love was recorded so long ago by people who were (at least at the time) so wasted and/or broke that when you really listen to the sound, you realize it was played through a box in a toilet and recorded on trash. ;) Half the tone you end up imagining in your head, like some kind of error correction!
Still, it seems that throughout the last 40 years, it's hard to go wrong by taking a fat guitar, loading it with fat pickups, and running it through a fat amp. I guess when I think of great guitar albums, I'm always going to think of the Sabbaths and Zeps and Mountains and Santanas ... though at any given moment I'm probably more likely to cue up something (slightly) more recent to listen to, like Zakk or Down or Spiritual Beggars or something. But that stuff doesn't really sound that different to me -- just louder and better recorded than the "classics"! :twisted:
