Topic: EVH anyone?
I'm going to say that 80% of what I've listened to this year has to be Van Halen, and its showing no signs of slowing down because I just purchased a preowned never used Frankenstein humbucker for my American Standard. The guy bought it and decided not to do anything with it... Procrastinated for too long and couldn't return it. So let that be a lesson "Procrastination is like masturbation, in the end your only screwing yourself!" - Famous quote from AD3.
No idea how it sounds but I was sick of my clean sounds, and sick of my thin distortion sounds on this guitar. I wanted a humbucker for a long time in it and now I've got it. I know a lot of people are like you have a few Gibson guitars at your disposal why would you make this one humbucking? 1) Its my favorite. 2) The CS 69' pickups sounded like crap in that guitar. 3) I know its not the guitar because it has had GFS pickups that IMHO slayed the CS pickups (Poor Fender) 4) I have a guitar that has Seymour Duncan strat pickups in it, and its the best sound for a strat I can think of... I seriously don't know how it could sound better. and 5) Because with guitars fat and ugly looks and sounds so nice!
Anybody else a fan of this EVH brand stuff? Still kicking the tires on my buddies 5150 ver.1 its a landmark amp I've always wanted and never needed. I know a few people said the Wolfgang guitars are excellent at 1 thing but pretty much suck at everything else. First song I'm going to play is "Panama"when I finish wiring up the guitar.
