RG 7620 bridge/neck replacement Smits Wolfetone?

ibznorange · 03-24-2008, 04:29 PM

I still prefer the goddamn motherfucking EMG 60

but not nearly enough to route out the guitar for it
Good pickups though, im diggin em. The carvins a fucking brightmachine though, so i wanna get a second neck pickup to use in both positions.

Ill sell you a Bridge version to try

Hmm...I will have to consider that. I'm not sure what I'd put it in, though.

ibznorange · 03-24-2008, 05:02 PM

Isnt your V a bit dark for your tastes?
The blackouts are definately more transparent than emgs, and Nick is right when he says the bridge would react better in a darker guitar. Ive tried the 6ers in a few guitars and hes spot on with that

noodles · 03-24-2008, 05:07 PM

Hmm...then how would I make it work with the neck pickup?

ibznorange · 03-24-2008, 05:14 PM

How many knobs are in the emo killer?
[edit] Theres 2
Just run a volume on each, no tone, or get concentric pots for it, so you have a set of 25ks for the bridge, and 500's or whatever for the neck. Run them before the switch, and then just hook the pups up to the switch normally. I remember allen did this (albeit with a lundgren and an 707) in some LACS, just that it had 4 knobs instead of using concentrics

Unfortunately, I have next to no room inside of the battery compartment.

ibznorange · 03-24-2008, 05:27 PM

You should still be able to fit it in that, especially if you just want to run volumes for each.
Thats a very slim, but very long, control cavity lol

noodles · 03-24-2008, 05:42 PM

Yeah, but I like one volume, one tone. I hate the idea of a bunch of knobs.

ibznorange · 03-24-2008, 05:46 PM

Understandable.
Whatever you do, i recommend trying em out in something sometime. I still am a passive guy generally, And while ive used EMG's on multiple occasions, i always ended up swapping em out for passives again fairly quickly. These definitely have potential to play dealbreaker with that. I still have plenty of other passives i want around, but i think (dont quote me though

) that these (in dual neck format) will be sticking around for a good while

I think the next KxK I'm getting to review will have Blackouts.
