I plan on doing an EMG S/SA/SA-loaded Strat eventually. Gonna be a Jackson SDX or an LTD ST-213FR. He also converted me.
I wanna go EMG 81/S or Duncan SH-6/SSL-5 on the baritone Strat because I want something to handle low tunings really well. Going down to like drop F on it.
That was back when I had an obsession with Sabbath. I still love that Strat, though. Basically the same setup still, but with a DiMarzio SD that I'm going to swap for an SH-5 and either a SSL4 or SSL5.
It's more about preferences. I actually am in a band, but I guess it's not exactly a band. The store where I take music lessons has a program where they kinda put kids together and play a show like once a year it's pretty cool, but it's impossible to do anything with them outside of practice. I'd like to be able to just jam on "Cygnus X-1" in someone's basement for hours on end and not care whether or not people will like it.
Yeah, I get you. In my high school, there's like MAYBE 2 bassists, about 5 or so drummers, and I'd guess like 20+ guitarists, pretty much none of whom like anything heavier than Zepplin. And I don't go to a small school, either.
