DrCornelius

DrCornelius

Ho hum , not sold and back up for sale .

TBF to the buyer on here he changed his mind very early on before seeing it . I left the guitar  showing as sold for a while as I was enjoying playing it :-)

Financial reality bites though after speaking to my financial advisor/life coach @JerkMoans ;

Wouldn’t take financial advice from me, amigo, unless you want to end up spending your time giving sexual favours for crack, and seeing your kids once a month under the watchful scrutiny of a social worker in a porta cabin round the back of Toymaster.

DrCornelius

That’s all behind me now, brush your teeth, wipe yourself down and move on as my caseworker used to say.

The Fukushima look is tres on-trend this season.

If you prefer the feel then change the pickups, they're super hot Dimarzios directly transplanted from the Axis (basswood/maple) and are the original EVH design. Totally unsuited to this guitar (mahogany/rosewood) IMO.

I have a non-Trem sunburst version and I love it. The prices on these new now are INSANE, but when you consider the quality and the neck, I suppose that is the reason.

I personally don't think the pickups are that 'hot'....maybe I'm wrong!

Dominic

No they are not that hot at all and work superbly well in the guitar

Winny_Pooh

15-16k on the bridge & 12-13k on the neck is not hot? 
If you enjoy rock music from the late 80's then I guess not but that's an awfully dark pickup set for a guitar with "dark" tone woods.

Wow my les Paul is way hotter than my AL and they were supposed to be lo in that

Dominic

Don't know what the figures are but they certainly don't seem particularly hot......the Albert HH is quite dark in sound tho' but I like that .........especially matched with a Blackface or Vox amp ...........I realise I don't like anything too bright 

DrCornelius

Funny you should say that Dominic because I’ve just picked up one of my old amps - a Boogie Studio 22 and annoyingly the AL sounds very nice through the clean channel which I always though was a beefy blackface tone. I’m like you in that my favourite guitar tone is not bright , probably a Tele Bridge with the tone rolled a long way off.

Dominic

Yes, I know what you mean.....The Albert sounds perfect in that set up.........what always amazes me is that it can sound so beefy when you want for a skinny, undersized little lightweight guitar in full HB mode -it's really got some heft.
 And yet the SSS sounds skinny and wiry .....like a Strat's weedy little brother .

Thanks HP - I agree of course :-)

DrCornelius

On hold !

To make money why not take that dog of yours to a dog fight. With it's general psychopathically narky demeanor you should be raking it in

DrCornelius

I’ve just told her that Travis and given her a map to your place - she’s offronted to say the least . She’s on her way round to seperate your dangly bits from your groin as we speak.
