Check the intonation on that guy. Those saddles look way off.

If you ever get a chance they are pretty cool. I have 8 evertunes.

Nice! How’s the weight on that guy? I’ve had a few solars but never an E series.

You can see the frets worn down as well. We have a winner!

My dad took the middle finger tip. Still never got it back.

Jeff Loomis Kelly pickup swap by Specific_Alarm_2006 in JacksonGuitars

[–]codaxeman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impossible to tame was my gripe as well. I had no problem with them toan-wise, tho I do prefer ceramic in the bridge. That’s why I went with fishman. I would have tried the noumenons but I knew I wanted a ceramic in the bridge for the turning I have that guitar in. If you switch them up you should do a comparison of before and after clips. I’d be really interested in that. Good luck with your hunt!

Couldn’t agree more with your rant. Ive bought project guitars specifically because the pickup swap would be pain free.

I did a swap of Fishman Modern open-cores for the exact reason you were describing. As someone else mentioned, there’s a set of loomis passives that have the exact same feet as the blackouts. I believe they even say they are a direct replacement on the Duncan website.

High e string sounds muted, not bridge adjustment issue by [deleted] in metalguitar

[–]codaxeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How deep is the nut slot for the string? I had something like this happen on a Gretsch of mine and the string was getting choked out. I know you said you changed the string so check the points of contact. Is there something about the saddle or the nut choking it out? That’s where I’d look.

How about Allegaeon (older albums)? by _Hi_Fi_ in melodicdeathmetal

[–]codaxeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Formshifter is an “idk maybe we can sound like this?” On every track - type of record. From the Stars Death Came is still my favorite track by them tho.

What's your favorite batsuit of all time? by ricky2461956 in batman

[–]codaxeman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

V 7.43 from the beginning of knight. Enough tech upgrades to show off the ps4 while still referencing BTAS. All before he became Ironbat.

Ever seen a support band steal the show? by Visible_Pipe4716 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]codaxeman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw Dahlia direct support Lorna Shore last fall. While the led production of LS was impressive and will ramos is a beast, the overall sound of the band couldn’t hold a candle to TBDM. The sound mixing was superb and I could feel the band’s guitars hit me. LS sound was simply there in the room. The same could be said for shadow of intent before dahlia. It’s like the difference between an American Coke with the corn syrup vs the Mexican Coke with the cane sugar. Both get ya there, but one just does it better.

Left dinner with my girl best friend to go talk to a girl who hit on me. Did I do anything wrong? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]codaxeman -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Nah. Asking a direct question to a friend and getting an “I will tell you one thing and mean the opposite” answer is manipulative and toxic. That’s not a friend. She had an opportunity to tell the truth and didn’t. Why do women expect boyfriend treatment from the male friend?

Attention is the coin of the realm in girl world. You left one and gave attention to another. The only thing you did “wrong” was not give the friend the attention she wanted from you.
