The ceramic Nailbomb or the alnico one?

Some of the Schecters have Blackouts as stock. I have a Painkiller in a Universe, and also had Nailbombs. The Painkiller is a lot tighter, the nailbombs (to me anyway) made evrything I play sound like Kyuss...I don't know, that's just my lasting memory. I also had a 7 that had D-activators, then I put in Blackouts. maybe it was all the hype, but the Blackouts didnt really live up to expectations....I think I preferred the D-Activators after all that. Anyway, the latest 7 string has BKP Aftermaths, they pretty much kill al of them, tho the Painkillers run a close second. Bear in mind these were pretty much all 7 string guitars, and I am yet to try a Warpig. I really want to hear one because they are meant to be pretty brutal. If you have a shitload of cash, Id get some BKPs, if not Id get Dactivators, I assume they are probably still a little cheaper than Blackouts.

I was thinking SD Invaders; I had a Jackson RR back in the day with Duncan Designed Invaders and they had a pretty destructive sound.

Those have the Blackouts as stock.
So many types of wrong! :rofl:
You'd think so, but no. Those are pretty awesome little guitars, the only thing that put me off was the finish on the back of the neck.
