Mithril46 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I have tried an earlier version of this guitar(07'?), thought that was great however the neck was narrowerand the pu's distort less easily. My ultimate test, does the guitar play/sound great with an .008 set, as Pagereally uses ?? Not so easy to get a great feel/sound from .008s. Quote
John Black Posted November 14, 2015 Author Posted November 14, 2015 Hi Mithril46. Thanks for the feedback! On the drive channel this model is a beast! I like it a lot! The pick-ups respond really really well, good dynamics! I didn't tried it with .008s. My usual strings are .009-.042 Ernie Ball Super Slinky, but I guess that it sounds nice with even more lighter strings. It really depends on how you set up your amp/pedals. Page uses a lot his volume/tone knobs also, while playing, so this can be a sound factor. Maybe I will add some tests to my reviews with different type of strings, although with floyd guitars takes a while to get them in tune . Cheers! Quote
