    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    To me, the DGT is a completely different sort of guitar from the Pauls, 408, and MEV. To me, it feels and sounds more vintage Gibson (which, IIRC, the pickups were based on a set of his 335 pickups, but I could be wrong about that.) I don't think there's any going wrong with the others. (Well...

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    I like it a lot. I think I realized that you have to treat it more like a Strat than a humbucking guitar. Once I started thinking about it that way and found the sweet spot with my amps, it made a huge difference. I was on the fence about the ME-V vs 408, too...and a deal on the ME-V dropped...

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    408? I have a PS Pauls Guitar (the green burst) and an ME-V (next to the Paul's, between it and the Custom 22 Semi-Hollow). Which did you want to see more of? I'd be happy to post pics!

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Thanks! It's a custom build from Dan Lawrence's GMP guitars with the paint done by him. The Jackson PC1 Adrenalize next to it was part of a limited run he painted that I stumbled across at CMC. The art was the big thing (on the Destroyer-type shape)...but Dan found a great piece of swamp ash...

    Thoughts about how to raise my cab/head.

    I have a vertical cab, so it's a little different, but I do the same thing under my 1x12 combo (which isn't pictured) -- a milk crate. I find that it raises them enough to hear a bit better, it's solid, and I can reach the controls easier.

    It arrived. It's gorgeous. And I do not regret it one tiny bit. :) And she fits in with the rest of the family :)

    Unfortunately (or fortunately) that seems to be my usual choice. :)

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Well, I ended up making a trade today for this so I guess I won't worry too much about it. :)

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    I can't imagine regretting getting the ME-V. Just trying to decide if it's different enough from the Paul's to merit getting. :)

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    True. I'm just pondering whether it's worth it to fork out $6k for a guitar that's almost the same as one I have and love. J

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    So, basically, what you're both saying is that I should have NOT purchased my Paul's Guitar and just waited for an ME-V? Oy. I think I've had it about a month now. :(

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Hiya all! I have an absolutely awesome Paul's Guitar that I picked up recently. I find myself really tempted by the limited ME-V run Brian's is doing. I've been looking for definitive answers, but coming up short -- is the ME-V basically a Paul's Guitar with an additional single coil and a...

    NGD: I'm a bit in awe...

    I've owned a bunch over the years, but nothing stuck...a couple of CE22s, a couple of Custom 22s, a Custom 24, several HBIIs... I finally ended up with a Custom 22 Semi Hollow Wood Library in a great buy a few months back that has my attention...and now this PS Paul's Guitar. I'll have to get a...

    This has been my "go to" guitar/amp as of late... what's yours?

    The Soldano cabs are a nice, but I'm not a big V30 fan...and the Avatar cabs are half the price with Fane M65s. It was an easy decision. :) (The purple head was lucky...a trade for an EBMM Axis SS BFR, also, ironically, purple.)

    NGD: I'm a bit in awe...

    I love my SuperSport. I've had an Axis, an Axis EX, and a couple of supersports and I love the feel of them all. The pickups are likely my favorite humbuckers around. I did determine that I'm just not a Floyd guy, no matter how many times I try, and got rid of my regular Axis and EX models. :)...

    NGD: I'm a bit in awe...

    It's going to take a little tweaking. It's currently set for an Axis SuperSport and Luke III but initial tests have been very, very pleasing. The pickups in this guitar are an entirely different beast. I'm liking it.
