If only EMG whould make their 7 string pickups like that, and produce a 7 string version of the SA singlecoil. If they did I could see an explosion of 7 string sales for them as all the people who wanted to try EMG's but didn't want to route their instruments bought them. Not to mention all the people who'd buy the SA7 to replace their Blaze singles.

Who exactly are you thinking of, by the way? I can't think of many current popular Japanese rock stars that fit those definitions...

Well, a lot of the metal rock stars look like that. Most standard Japanese rock stars don't look anything like that. I'd say there are just as many rock stars in the US and UK that look like rock stars from the 80s and early 90s as there are here (in Japan). (I have no idea what band that Kobayashi guy is from, anyway. I wonder how he got a signature guitar, because I doubt it's a super popular band. Eh, you never know).

Sushi is probably my favorite food on the planet, but I've met Japanese people who don't like seafood. And I'm sure there are Japanese who are allergic to seafood. So, no worries there. Of course, the fact that your assumption is off base probably ruins your plans. Vacationing here sounds like a cool idea though. Rushing into moving here might be a little too rash. ha ha.

And, no, Firehouse is not big over here. The average Japanese has never even heard of them. I think rg7420user was just throwing out a little random joke there.

Set-neck, why not a neck-thru...

Yep, I was and it bombed miserably.

"There oughta be a law!" I was an old Firehouse fan back in the day.
