A couple Tone Nerds and a couple Duncans walk into a bar..

I sorta had the same problem with the Screamin Demon, which is far less hot but similar EQ wise, especially in the treble department: in a dense mix you either don't cut, or get a thin fizzy sound when EQing to cut properly.

Yeah, I had one of those in a Lynch Kamikaze. Wasn’t a big fan EXCEPT through my IIC++ and Greenback cab. It was epic there.

Alright guys we just had practice, so it's time for the reveal. FIRST let me lead with- this is so deep into personal preference and everyone hears things differently. Which is cool.

To @Zado 's point, even though playing solo I really liked how tight & cutting the Dimebucker was, in the band mix it was very fizzy on the top end. It was usable, but not ideal. Now I know.. If you like Dime's tone, this is definitely how to get there!

Ok for the reveal.
Pickup 1- ToneNerd Sunset Strip
Pickup 2- Duncan Dimebucker
Pickup 3- ToneNerd Psykes
Pickup 4- Duncan Distortion

I just can't do PUPs with a soft attack. The only passive PUP I've ever really liked (so far) was the Wagner Iron Man. My drummer says I should try an Invader next...

I knew there was a chance either 2 or 3 was the Psykes. I thought it would have been closer to the DD than DB. Ooooops.
That DB sounds pretty good here.

Roxy or Wicked 8 would take this, imo.
Motor City Detroiter is pretty dang tight with good output in my SG. Smacks the Friedman Phil X pretty hard. JWP Godwood is pretty good too, but I think Detroiter is tighter.
