So yesterday I was working on a huge project for a client. Tons of equipment to coordinate and a deadline. As I was analyzing everything I realized the item most likely to delay the project was velcro!! Simple little velcro lol So I messaged some coworkers who were aware of the situation and I said - I’m starting a new band called Death By Velcro! They laughed. Then a few minutes later one of them sent me a band logo (it’s in the corners of the video) She generated it using Gemini AI. Then I said I’m gonna write a song!! They said DO IT!! and then it was on lol So a couple hours later I had this tune written and recorded - so you just never know where inspiration is going to come from. And full disclosure - I wrote all the music and chorus lyrics but I had AI write the verse lyrics and pre chorus lyrics - I’m not a quick lyric writer lol but I did write everything else!!
for gear I used my LTD TE-201 modded with a floyd. Boss SD-1>Peavey 6505 Mini>Marshall 1960BX w Eminence CV-75 for rhythm. BossSD-1>Blankenship Masterplex for solos. Didn’t use my new recording rig - I don’t have EZdrummer loaded yet so I had to pull out the old pc to knock this out real quick. And oh yeah, the velcro is gonna make it lol

 
I use the stock ESP LH-150 pups. A lot of people swap em out, But I really like them!

holy shit, you might be the first person i've seen even acknowledge those pickups lolol

and i have to say the tone sounded great. this is very good to know!

right?!?! So when I got my 1st EC-256 I plugged it and thought this sounds really good! Then I swapped the LH-150 for a Duncan Distortion, and I liked the LH-150 better. So all the LTD’s I have I just keep the LH-150s, I really like them. I’ve seen people go I’m getting an EC-256 what pup should I put in. and i’m always like maybe listen to the pup it comes with 1st??? lolol

completely agreed, i'm guilty as charged here

Edwards guitars now come with ELH-1 pickups....i'm wondering if it might be worth a chance here to try em out if they're at least in the same ballpark as yours!
