Tomorrow...I promise!! :thumbsup: ;)

Awesome! I look forward to it man :thumbsup:

Im interested to know how the Holy Diver sounds in the LP... Im not fully satisfied with the Custom Custom, i think theres too much midrange and smoothness happening.. needs more bite!

Il probably end up just buying another Suhr Aldrich humbucker, theyre about £30 cheaper than the BK's and sound great too! :rock:
You know, the BK's are just awsome..... I mean, the Aldriches I had were the noisiest damn things I had ever heard. But both the BK's I've had were absolutely SILENT even at the highest gain settings. And they sound GOOD. :yes:
 
Sweet guitars JB!

Could you elaborate on the Holy Diver and how it sounds in a LP??

:rock:

Thanks mang. My wife went to bed really early tonight, so i've only been playing at real low volume, but so far, it seams to be fairly balanced. Pretty much perfect output. Tight, but not too tight. I'll know more tomorrow.

Wow the Aldrich's were noisey?? Are you positive they weren't wired incorrectly or grounded correctly? Mine even at the highest gain settings are silent in my GMW!

Did yours have covers?

Congrats for the new gear, man!!! What color did you get?

Thanks man. It's black with nickel hardware. They went to town on the VOS thing too. It really does look like it's about 25 years old, except when you look at the fingerboard and frets.

Awesome dude!
Is the Custom a new model? I didn't think they still made the '68 custom.
 
i love that guitar, someday i will own one just like it.

Thanks man. Yeah, it's an '07 68 RI, but I don't think they make them anymore. Which is kind of cool for me I guess.

Maybe they weren't installed correctly. I didn't install them, but a tech did for the previous owner of that guitar. But even the stock pickups in the LP's are noisier than the BK's.
 
Very nice J.B.! I love the black and nickel look (never cared for the black and gold)!

I should have my custom here by early next week :rock:

I like the nickel hardware better than the gold... by alot...


I like both, but I probably prefer gold.

That's a great looking guitar J.B. Congrats!!
 
Thanks guys. This is the guitar I have wanted for the longest time. Nickel hardware, beefy neck, VOS, (I love the worn black Custom look with black pickups)......just love the thing. I found out today that this was a limited run too! Only so many made in '07, so that's a bonus! :rock:

So we should expect it to be up for grabs in a month or two?

;) :D

:thumbsup: I really want an Aldrich set with both the neck and bridge pickups for my R7 Goldtop! The stock pickups are nice, but too vintage sounding for me!

Yeah, I'm going to put something in my 57RI. I just don't know what yet. I'm leaning towards a BBQ right now.
