Are you serious or just joking? Smooth Criminal surely is not your all-time favorite song is it?

Anyways, at any scale length, something like an Invader or Warpig will balance out nicely with a guitar that is very mid-bright unplugged. It will indeed be somewhat 2-dimensional because of the compressing nature of high-dcr winds and the strident and focused nature of hard-maple. A lower or...

Hard to believe Ozzy is still alive.

All I know about BG is that SOTD is a beast of a live album.

So you think it's bright because of scale length being 25"?

The vast majority of LP scale guitars are darker because they have those huge hunk of mahogany bodies and are strung at lower string tensions.

It's bright because it's all maple w/ebony. edit; (which in itself is an exception to the rule)

Scale has little to do with it. My full-maple Carvin is 25" scale with an ebony board, and it has the basic EQ profile of a jcm800 lol. It is anything but muddy even with an Invader, which only on the internet is a muddy pickup. On a shorter scale just bump up the gauges by a notch and there...

^^^ Exactly this. You want something thick with fat lower-mids and not too much upper-mids, or at least not a dominant upper-midrange. Invader Warpig D'activator-X Sonic Ecstasy https://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/high-power/sonic-ecstasy-bridge?v=32266

My ideal for E tuning would be 9-44, but I don't currently have any at E.

Those would be OK for G-standard tuning, but the 7 might often snap.

Invader

Between my four rectifiers I'm sure at least one will outlast me lol. Only one of them has ever needed service yet, and that was my 95 dual needing some new caps, a couple new pots, a loose chassis ground fixed, and by choice a different effects-loop jack to convert it to their original factory...

Those are really great. If set to the "standard" clean-boost with level at max and drive at 0 they are cleaner than the basic ts9 or 808. Sometimes I use the toggle in normal with the drive at 9:00-11:00, and other times with the toggle in boost with the drive at 8:00-9:00. Even using the drive...

Yeah I'd agree to trade it or sell it and go for a Mesa. Oversized/Recto slant is very close in regards to internal volume compared to a traditional-size straight cab, so don't resist the very easy to find recto-slant, even if it's much newer than the 2000's era it will still have the 8ohm UK...

IMO the whole black album is bro rock.

Never liked their music. Slayer shits all over them even now. Seem like nice guys though.

81/85 at standard 9v edit; As Rex mentioned, buy the old logo emgs if possible, and if buying the modern logo shoot for before 2015 and you will be getting good versions.

I bet they would mix very well with the CL-80. I'd put both reds on top if mixed in a 412. CL-80 have the loudest perceived volume to my ears of any Celestion model.
