    almost every one of those guys was a boring sweeper mike......you choose rusty over alex dickson?? B)

    rusty cooley is much more than just a sweeper...he is an amazing guitarist...give him moreof a listen sometime

    ive listened to him too much. i cant stand his playing.

    you might find alex dickson on here: Sack Trick

    Awesome band.

    Go to mp3s and listen to the penguins on the moon song, or blue ice cream for an alex dickson solo

    the way the neoclassical solo goes into the comedy random backing after on penguins on the moon just makes me laugh for hours :D

    haha. some guys dressed up as james and lars, but some girl dressed up as kirk :D

  16. LACE pickups

    in Electronics Chat

    hi all,

    was wondering if you could help me choose the right pickups for my future project strat. basically im after that smooth bell like tone in the neck position, the shredder tone, like yngwies, would a Gold Lace Sensor be suitable? i also play metal, so a good bridge pickup would be a bonus. there are several options to me. a full lace sensor gold set, would this satisfy? a gold/blue/red setup, would this be better? also the option of using the Dually pickups, a twin gold at the neck and a twin red in the bridge? any comments would be well recieved. the pickups look very promising, i dont like normal passives, but these look light years past normal passives, i would usually use EMG's but wanna try these. i like versatility, i usually put in switches for making the pots no-load etc...

    whatare the s/n figures for these pickups? the site seems to tell me 5 times better, but a nice ball park figure would be cool! thanks in advance!

    Mike

    yngwie's music is metal, mike.

    Not my cup of tea, the guitars sound horrible.. way to thin and buzzy for my taste. But that could just be the quality of the recording.

    yea, my mic sucks, I am actually really good, right up there with Vai and SRV, but the mic makes it sound bad :DB):D

    Curtis, how can you say you're up there with Vai and Stevie Ray?! That's an outrage! You can't blame everything on your Microphone!

    wait if its a zoom 505 i would know. I think he used a 606. thats what i have

    you get a few more tweaks from it then the 505. The 606 has a pedal built in the 505 and has like 5 more tweaks to it or something like that.

    i dont think john frusciante would be caught dead using a zoom
