I still have the original Tremonti pickup in the neck but am thinking of replacing it with a Sentient. I agree that the Nazgul isn't just a power pickup, it has plenty of warmth and sparkle too. Yes, a musical pickup.

Agreed and I also love the bridge HB pickup clean. Distortion wise, the pedal I am using with the Holcomb is a Blackstar Dept 10 Dual Distortion. It seems a match made in heaven, or hell in Metal terms. With the quality and power of the pickups, the best metal sound comes with the gain dialled...

Over the last few weeks I have acquired 2 signature, SE range guitars. A Mark Tremonti and a Mark Holcomb. I got the Tremonti preowned, about 3 weeks ago. It's the charcoal signature model and the previous owner had already added PRS locking tuners. It looks darker in person and overall has a...

Guess I do, especially when they look this good.

I fancied getting another guitar, to express my more metallic, heavily overdriven side, again! Something good to widdle on. So a fast neck and reasonably high output pickups were in order. I'd spotted a JACKSON Pro Monarkh SC, in Transparent Purple Burst, at Promenade Music but didn't fancy...

Cheers for that.

Thanks guys. Any idea what make of strings, PRS put on the 277?

I went out today, with the plan of trying out an Epiphone Sheraton II Pro. So I drove over to Reidys, in Blackburn. They were supposed to have a natural finish version of the said, Sheraton. Their computer records said they did but it turned out, they'd sent it out. I took to mooching around...

Thanks guys. That's why I got this beauty.:)

I originally went out, to check out a MusicMan JP6. But was more impressed by an EBMM LIII, in Neptune Blue. Then I spotted this PRS Singlecut. It's beautifully quilted, dark cherry top, with sort of, matching headstock and quilted maplebinding, looked stunning. The "wide fat" neck is very...

Real beauties, both of them.

What an absolute stunner. Looks like you've got yourself a very special guitar. Big congrats.:biggrin:

OMG, that is one stunning guitar. The blue is just so deep. Congrats.
