The Official sounds like more mic/pre gain on the raw sound...almost like the original sound was reamped.

Much better clarity on the Helios with that slight adjustment.

Funny (yet tragic) story...was roady-ing for a buddy back in the early 90's...his band opening for a big Chicago/National band at the Thirsty Whale ..as I was breaking down gear this guy is already bleeding out his nose and is covertly carrying more more coke in a towel and he's hooverin up...

Pearly Gates...Parallel Axis Neck..Blues Saraceno Bridge Parallell Axis in the neck..Bare Knuckle Cold Sweat...And a true gem in the neck for me is the Illuminator...super clear/defined but still creamy with nice ouput.

Thicker than cold oatmeal! Nice clarity too.

Sounds great Ves! Nice and gritty but has that clarity you mentioned.

I had the same issue with neck pickups..either tinny and weak or bloated and bassy...I found a few over the years I like..BK Cold Sweat..BK Emerald..DiMarzio Illuminator and Duncan Parallel Axis..I'm using a Parallel Axis Saraceno bridge in the neck on one of my main guitars..sounds fantastic...

He had a cool unique style amongst the many shredders of the day...Kinda like throwing Gilbert, Vai and Saraceno into a blender....and dayaaaammm..Stu Hamm and Steve Smith as your band...you'd have to work hard to sound shitty with that rhythm section.

I had the 6505+ combo and dropped a EMI Legend V12 in it...more headroom and power and better definition.

A great blend of crunch and fuzz...it's CRUZZY!!...or would it be Funchy???

Great player and that Paul sounds great.

Chimey throatiness.....another vague term for yeah..it sounds great.

Voted D, but liked C almost as much..

Had a well traveled Gunslinger back in the 90's...nice instrument..threw flames with a Duncan distortion in it.

Beautiful instrument no doubt...but..I'm thinking buy low...hype...sell high...pretty standard human action...trying to take advantage of us guitar maestro's...

Before it's over, he'll be buying your cab.

I played a Bogner Goldfinger 45 (while stoned to the bone) and really felt exactly what the OP noted...good under the fingers...I could hear and feel the bloom in the notes through the amp...the actual ebb and flow of the picking and volume knob dynamics.

My experience....they used to be 6-800..5-6 for the Sig, and 7-9 for the block depending on the details...$750 would be a good buy...9-1100 if they think it's got some uniquness to it.

Had a PATB2 in a G&L Climaxx super strat years ago and liked it for metal. Sold that guitar a while back and now have nothing but BKPs in all my guitars except one..my new Solar 6 string. Yanked the Duncan Solars and put the PATB1 in the bridge and the PATB3 in the neck. I am a die hard BKP...

If you can't get a good tone with the $$ resources they have and those Fractal rigs then it's on them or their guitar techs. I do agree that in the vid Drucifer posted the tone is kinda meh...but if they like it..who are we to tell them otherwise? I a using my AX8 at practice full model into a...
