Mickguard Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Cool! Glad to hear it's working out well! What're you using for pickups on that thing? I picked up a set of Filtertron-style humbuckers from the guy behind Eastwood Guitars a while back...been looking for a guitar to put them in. Sounds really great--surprisingly huge bass sound (through a 2x12 cabinet). I plan on picking up a bass amp with a 15" speaker tomorrow, should add some punch. I think this string set is a good compromise -- it's still playable as a guitar, but it also feels like a bass when you're playing the bass strings. I tried tuning down to A, but I found it lost a lot of clarity and presence -- maybe thicker strings would restore the snap? I'll try them out next string change. I'm still toying with the idea of splitting a Precision pickup for the bass side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
