    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    Thats awesome, I imagine it plays beautifully. It's funny how getting an import guitar I actually like only makes me want the real thing even more. This custom shop looks really cool, seems ti have the right people involved. I imagine its expensive as hell though. Looks awesome either way.

    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    My other humbuckers are PRS Dragon II's, Gibson Classic 57's, Duncan Pearly Gates+, and a Duncan Distortion. The 36th anniversary in the neck is really nice, articulate, and splits pretty well. I am really considering one in the bridge at some point. It reminds me of the old Tim Shaw pickups I...

    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    After more difficulty than it should have been, I finally got the dimarzio 36th anniversary and the super distortion installed. Im really enjoying them. They are definitely a different flavor than anything else i have, but they sound great for a 80s rock type thing. Thanks again for all the...

    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    I have to agree that the korean Bc Rich guitars are way nicer than I would've expected. I bet the Duncan Sh6 sounds awesome in that guitar. I have one in and old frankenstrat and it rips. Hopefully I get the Dimarzios today. Should be awesome! :rock: :rock: :rock:

    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    Thank you guys for the thoughtful replies. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the 36th anniversay/super distortion set. ChurchHill, you might have me sold on trying out some BKPs next though. They sound awesome. Thanks again, Rig-Talk rocks

    BC Rich Mockingbird pickups

    Figured I would get the experts advice here, I picked up an import BC Rich Mockingbird STC w/ a floyd rose special and want to throw some better pickups in it. They need to have 4 wires for the coil split/reverse phase/ varitone mess that is in the guitar. I play a wide variety of rock but I...

    Just got my Metallica tix. Who's going?

    I'll be there in Detroit..can't wait. Somehow I've never made it to one of their shows before this one. Should be pretty epic.

    Celestion Creamback 75 vs Vintage 30 (Video)

    What a great video, really well done. I would love to see more done just like this. I'm surprised how much I liked the creamback.

    Mesa Boogie Mark V 25 Head -- Any opinions?

    I really enjoy my mark v:25. I have gigged it many times and enjoy it over many other amps I've owned. I like it with a thiele cab and an evm12l. Works great with a V30 as well.

    The best deal

    Same pawn shop sold me an early ESP KH-2 Ouija for $600 and a 1994 Ibanez Iceman IC-500 for $180. Sold the Ouija to pay for my wedding and traded the Ibanez for a PRS CE-22 that I still have. Loved both of those guitars though.

    Best speaker for an open back Mark III combo?

    Just try a V30 in it. I have a purple stripe Mark III combo with a V30. I never changed it out because it sounds good to my ears. I use a mark V:25 with a V30 as well. They both sound good for vintage rock styles to me.

    Swiss army amp?

    Just got done playing my Mark V:25 and couldn't imagine a better choice, especially for the money.

    The "F#%k I miss this guitar" thread

    I guess I miss my 1994 Esp Ouija. I sold it to pay for my wedding to a guy in Germany. No regrets there, but it was THE guitar I dreamed about as a kid. Sweet guitar, but I can't justify the cash it would cost to buy it back.

    If you had to pick one?? Mesa Mark III or Marshall DSL-100H

    My two amps right now are a purple stripe Mark III combo and a 50 watt DSL w/4x12. After gigging both, I would probably stick with the Mark III. That being said I really like the Green channel on the DSL. It sounds really good boosted.

    Carvin or Les Paul Custom?

    Thanks man, somehow I lucked out and found 2 at the same time. It's alot of fun going back and forth between the LP and the 335. They are both keepers for sure.

    Carvin or Les Paul Custom?

    Just finished a band practice. I ran both guitars through a mesa mark III and through a Marshall Dsl 50. The les paul sounded killer... and I mean killer with the mesa on high gain. Lots of clarity and just really agressive. Both guitars sounded great though. The 335 is a different beast. No...

    Carvin or Les Paul Custom?

    So I found myself at a guitar center and couldn't decide on a LP Custom they had or a really great 335... I ended up getting both haha... The Les Paul Custom is a 1983 that has seen better days, but plays great, sounds great, and has it where it counts. The 335 outplays a bit though so it had to...

    Sammy Hagar!

    Saw Sammy last year expecting a crap show and I have to say he brought the goods. It helped that he had Jason Bohnam with him and they played some Zeppelin tunes. One of the better surprises I have had at a show.
