So my plan fell through...

Matt08642 · 08-04-2007, 12:56 AM

I was gonna upgrade my squier slowly (new neck, then new body, making a whole new guitar) but that's too complicated, plus it would be missing a string

I think I'll ask for some money for my birthday (September 18th), then I'll ask for money for Christmas. After I get all that money, I think I'll buy an Ibanez RG7321 and upgrade the pickups.

Good plan?

Oh, I would also keep this in Open C. What could I use for the Low G? .70?

Will a .70 fit in the nut and tuner?

Or put in D-Activators?

Eh, I heard they had really poor dynamics.

Maybe a blaze? Thats what I'm putting in mine.

I have to saw into my tuning peg with a .66 on mine. So I don't know if yours will fit.

Check out the vids of the new blackouts, see if you like 'em.

Damn right!

X2Ns are great for being a very metal pickup and have plenty of dynamic range, plus the split and out of Phase modes are totally killer.

Matt08642 · 08-04-2007, 01:26 AM

Hmmmm, maybe I could go for something in between the all out metal of the X2N-7 and other lower output pickups.

Maybe a D-Sonic 7?

I'm assuming he's going to want to mass produce these rack pies, and why not?
