Post by sizzlingbadger »

Put Slash pickups in my PRS, very happy - at last !!! Also put new pots (and caps) in as one of the originals volume controls was playing up a bit.

How do I change the look? For some reason I've defaulted to the blue/white look out of the standard black I usually have.

There was an issue with the server a little while back.
The black theme was removed. Not sure if it's back yet.

Nice! I dropped a set into my Gibson LP Classic about a year ago. Sounds awesome couldn't be happier, found the stock pups to be really muddy.
Loving it so far

I have the Slash pickups in my Les Paul. They sound great. They are a dark sounding pickup, so match your amp carefully. Marshall is good, Mesa is not so good.

An alternative is the Pearly Gates, which has a similar tone. I find it works even a little better than the Slash pickups. Again, through a Marshall is best, but sounds ok through a Mesa.
In life, don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff.
