this is my strat with the 78' that i just cant put down, a left and right track of the red channel and a track of blue down the middle, my ibanez thermion 4x12 with v30s and a unidyne 57. i think im starting to understand the hype with these things

I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is.

Amazing tones as always. Is that the SD 78 humbucker? Is it supposed to be an EVH thing?

i did do the c137 mod, when i get a minute ill do a blue clip too. the duncan 78 is i guess some sort of hotter paf EVH type thing, for most my amps its just hot enough to grind but stays clear when chugging, its just a little too weak for the blue channel unboosted though, but with the red channel which is pretty over the top gain wise its pretty nice.

Sounds great. Digging this over the 6505+?

Definitely, i was thinking I should do some comparison clips and see what’s up, i think it’s more a feel thing with the 6505+, it just seems a little slow or something in the response that just doesn’t match up with my playing.
