I've been gigging steadily for over 25 years.
Never had the guitar in the monitors on purpose.
Current band is one guitar, bass, drums and vocals that's it.
Luckily three of us have done FOH engineer work so we usually don't have a problem figuring out what we need to do at a particular venue...
Buy the right radius and width nut, you want a 12". Shim the nut for string height. A new OFR will have a shim plate under the center saddles, remove it to get your flatter radius.
You may have to shim the outer two saddles a very little bit to tweak it perfect to the neck. Use a radius gauge at...
OK, get on google maps....
The Cave Creek, Carefree, Paradise Valley, North Scottsdale areas are very nice.
Wickenburg is close enough to the Valley for convenience but far away enough to not be gangsta... some very nice properties there although it sits on the main road to Las Vegas and the...
Cave Creek is nice and sort of out of the way. Elevation is a little higher than the Valley. One year they got snow so half of Phoenix invaded and played in the snow. We went up in the middle of the night in the "blizzard" ... It was lots of fun but for a couple security guards at an adjacent...

Nothing...

MCP Angel Dust is gonna be way too bright in that guitar.
If you didn't want to stay away from DiMarzio, I would say Tone Zone.
If you wanna try a Bare Knuckle, Nail Bombs work well in bright guitars.
I use the Heil, run a separate head set at 8 ohms. It has a built in crossover, I took it apart and ohmed it out once, can't remember exactly but it's over 8 ohms and less than 16 so the 8 ohm trans tap on the head is a safe mismatch.
I A/B using my Rocktron switcher.
Seriously, hope you have a good credit card company. At this point I would be after recovery of funds. These empty promises could go on literally for years and years. Cameron is much like the Titanic in that their greatest contribution has been to serve as a warning to others.
