ARGHslkfjds;lfkjd Tone plz

Alright, I have the cash in hand.

I'm not completely satisfied with my tone, period. There are 2 things that WILL change, and I'll be happy when they do.

As for right now, I'm looking for the biggest change. What will hold me over until I can afford the other?

I have a Mesa Dual Rectifier solo head, matching cab.. etc.. but I cant crank it at bedroom volume and stand infront of it to EQ. So, here comes the Hot Plate.

Option 1:
Buy a Hot Plate!

My S7320 and H307 both have HORRIBLE pickups. The Ibby has bs stock S series pickups, and the ESP has EMG HZ's.

I could upgrade my S7320 to an X2N7in the bridge and an Evo 7 in the neck.

Option 2:
Buy the DMarzios!

Which one?

Sigs ftg

In that case I vote for Hot Plate.

Twice as expensive, but worth 10 times than any DiMarzio.

Hotplate will work awesomely. and 4) Buy Blackouts.


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

Nah, I gig too, but I still dont think crank it up loud enough to get the tubes hot.

4-5 at the most.

But then, at that point in time, I still cant EQ it properly because it would melt my face off.
