The 60, or the 60X specifically, is my favorite EMG humbucker and second favorite EMG. (SX is my favorite.)
I’ve had a 60 or 60X in my two Jacksons essentially since I’ve owned them. Bridge and neck. I’ve swapped out other pickups, but the 60/60X goes back in. It’s clear, defined, and extremely...
It depends. I spent 3 years solid and the better part of 5 years with a little Peavey Vypyr 30 as my only amp. Granted, once I started playing consistently and frequently again, I began The Quest anew. And while the Vypyr has many models, I used the Twin, the Recto, and the XXX nearly...

Sounds pretty good actually. You mentioned Fishman earlier. I'll throw in a recommendation
for the Classics. I truly wish they made the Classics in 7 and 8 string versions as the 6 stringers are pretty outstanding to my ears.
BTW, great video...
V vs. JP2C? JP2C
And I'll add to the others voices saying buy a used IV.:D
As a two decade long Mark series lover, the V was disappointing. There are good and great tones in the amp, but it just doesn't stand on equal footing to the rest of the line to my ears. The JP sounds much better and I...
And this right here speaks directly to my heart. The Mark series are my favorite amps. The IV has become my favorite period because it's generally tighter, sharper, and more focused than the IIC varieties. Lead 2 Red from the Triaxis is my second fav and would likely be first if I could get a...
Quick questions for the MTL owners, do you know where the Bright knob is located in the circuit? And is it just a more typical Bright switch, just simply in a more user controllable form?
How would you compare the feel to your MTL? I have a feeling that what I'm after amp wise is nearly sold state feeling in nature. I want the breath and dimensionality that's usually found with tubes though. BTW, have you ever played any of the AMT Stone Head amps?
Yeah. I remember reading that and it made me very wary of the Jackson custom shop. I remember about 10-15 years ago, custom ESPs were arriving with inaccuracies and screw ups too. I don't recall anything like the above, but I remember the anger and disbelief on the ESP forum. That said, I've...
While this is cool, I'm hoping this means the big head will be easier to find now too. There's a stable of about 6 amps I've become extremely interested in over the past several months and the Satan/Natas is on the list pretty high. It's hard finding an amp that can balance the 8th string well...
I would also recommend you contact Lee Garver of GMW Guitarworks. His SS model can be had with the specs you wrote at what I'm certain would be a less expensive price. And quality wise, the custom GMW guitars I've played have easily matched any of the custom shop Jackson guitars I've played...
