Using LR Baggs Anthem dual source in all my acoustics (PRS and otherwise) They have been very reliable and the battery life is great. I had a couple of custom acoustics made that are essentially a Martin OM body combined with PRS style hybrid fan/x bracing. It might be my favorite thing ever.

I've had these in a couple of different guitars over the years (and ive also had 3 different sets of pickups in the Akerfeldt over time) They jive really well with it. I play in a Journey tribute and my P24 and the Akerfeldt are my main guitars for it. I did a custom refin on the MA as well.

Im using a set of 57/08s in my SE Mikael Akerfeldt. I love them in it.

He still has the BLK1 and a few others I would assume. I havent seen him pull many out lately. Saw the BLK1 played live recently.

Absolutely stunning. Id love to get my hands on one and open up the cavity to see what kind of wiring they have going on in there.

Here's my little rig.

I got a 50mm and 52mm cover from philly luthier supply. I removed them from the pickup rings and quite literally slid them on . I didnt do any extra wax potting, but will be doing so in the near future. Ive got another set coming that I want to try the heat treating a little differently on...

Just got this little beauty last Friday and I have big plans for her. I cant say enough about how great these are. The neck is just butter, and not just any butter. I'm talking about that good, lick it off the plate, welcome the heart attack, garlic butter. Stock pickups have a very nice...

My wife allowed me to get this one around Christmas this year. She didn't explicitly say it but i read between the lines. Backstory: I was watching this one on eBay. Going for an incredible price. 1 hour left and i placed a one increment bid thinking if by some miracle i get if for this...

I had a huge ammount of pedals on this same board before. I also had a Line6 HD500X. I found myself needed parts of both. The HD500X only had a single effects loop though. The Helix has 4. It was the perfect marriage. I am really loving the helix though. Super easy to use and the...

Loving my new setup. Ive got the 4 pedals into the effects loops of the helix.

The TG is almost always on backorder. I had one on order from GC (20% off coupon around the holidays!) and found out that the backorder was until may. I saw one go up on reverb yesterday and it had the prettiest top I've see on a ZM. I snatched it up immediately and cancelled my order with...

I ordered one from GC before Christmas. Trampas green. The GC site is still showing a ship date of 1/23. I ordered on 12/14. Did you get notification from musicians friend that your ship date is pushed until may or are you just going off the ship date listed on the site currently? I...

Would it be possible to update links in older posts? They are taking us back to the old page and it just says "we've moved". I then have to search for the title of the linked thread in order to find it? I hadn't noticed of there was anything consistent in the link naming convention that would...

I've got a ZM on the way and am planning this same mod. It appears that the ghost saddles will fit the ZM bridge so I may swap them into it. Great job on yours. That cavity is nice and tidy. The other mod I might do with it is making a new cavity cover with a battery box in it.
