"Humbucker from hell"? Sounds enticing!

"Humbucker from hell"? Sounds enticing!

It sounds very nice. It's not a high output pick-up as one might expect. It has a lot of clarity.

I am suddenly a huge fan of Red snakeskin. Seriously, that thing has some fuckin attitude!

[Ben...]

Wow... all I can say is wow...

It's bright sounding and actually supposed to be like a single coil tone in humbucker housing.

Congrats on that beauty!!! Love the chrome tops on the pickups, too.

BTW I am about to place a order for a white KV1t

hey AK47,

what brigde are you going to order?
I guess a TOM, since a Kahler fixed aint possible.
I recently found the Schaller Hannes brigde. Maybe you wanna to a look at it.
It has lot of surface contact.
A german luthier discripes its sound as woody and natural sounding.
I guess this comes closest to the Kahler...

My silver KV, Dave's DM00292 replica. (I used to consider it as DM010 replica, but i got the information from the original owner, actually its DM00292 replica)

They will do a King V with a Kahler fixed bridge. They won't do a "KV1". I'm guessing because the "KV1" was considered Mustaine's signature model.

As it was explained to me, Mustaine has no "intellectual property" rights on a King V with a Kahler fixed bridge. But when you ask for a KV1 those had Mustaine's signature on 'em and they came with LSR's (which out of business for the moment) so it gets shot down.

Jackson Demon Custom Shop

My first Jackson Custom Shop Demon

[roodyrocker]

Nice Demon!!!

[ToneZone]

Fantastic Demon. I want one!

[Hamish MDB]

I've only got the one Custom Shop RR so far, but hopefully I will get more! Hurrah!

It's a 24 fret RR with OFR, Duncan in the bridge and DiMarzio in the neck, bound ebony fretboard with inlay taken from a tattoo on my left arm (which in turn was from a cd of ours a few years back).
