Try optimising an amp patch from the ground up for the UV with the Blaze in it - right now, you're not even comparing apples to oranges, you're comparing apples to pickup trucks, dude.

I mean, if nothing else, a 1x8 really isn't designed to deal with the low end a seven string puts out...

i've already made a patch around the uv, doesn't mean it sounds as good as what i can get out of the rhoads or even the mahogony bodied washburn...
