That was awesome, Hunter. I was wondering what pickups for Matias' sound, and now I have my answer. You are gonna sell me off a VhII to a Black dog just yet! Always a joy to hear your clips. Don't stop bringin' it

Thanks man :o)

I think any BKP pickup from the vintage/vintage hot section can get you that Jabs tone, given you have a mahogany guitar and something like a tubescreamer pedal and something like a marshall amp.

I wouldn't say that the VHIIs could do less a Jabs than the BlackDogs, he does usually play with more treble/less bass than me in this clip, so VHIIs might be as good, depending on what you like. I'd say BlackDogs would be a bit more dirty (awesome for lead playing, but be careful with gain and lower freqs when playing rhythm, see discussion above), VHIIs have more transparency and clarity (great for rhythm but they push back a bit more when you play single note lines).

What means the G12-65 ROLA??

It's a Celestion Speaker. Standard is Celestion Vintage 30 these days. In the 80s, or early 90s most cabs came with G12T75 which have lots of bass and punch but are not very nice for blues or clean sounds. Then there were so called Greenbacks, or G12M25 in earlier days, which are great for Blues or Classic Rock, but don't have the punch. G12-65, which was a model manufactured in a time when Celestion was owned by Rola, they added the Rola label on the speakers, they are set in between G12M25 and G12T75 and are available again these days as a reissue speaker.

The clip was done with an original Marshall JCM800 1x12 Cab of the 80s with a G12-65 Rola speaker.
