      Not sure why that is, I get EMG’s 81/85’s put on all my guitars whether they’re 6 strings or 7’s! They make the guitars sound God Size.
      Cheers! 🤘🏽

    Man those are looking cool!
    My SL2H-Mah U.S.A. soloist from 2005 is still an absolutely phenomenal guitar and a testament to how great quarter sawn maple necks are!! The neck is still in absolute perfect condition, no twists or bow. Only adjusted the truss rod once when I got the guitar when I first installed my heavier gauge strings than stock. That guitar in used condition now sells for $1000 more than new list price in 2005 :)
    Which was around $2200.00 if I recall correctly.
    I don’t know if they’re still doing quartersawn necks I’m definitely going to use one when I build my custom multi scale eighth string. 26.5-29

    Always been a Fender Strat man but after playing a Jackson soloist w. FR I realized that’s the best strat you can have ( owned by Fender) I then added a Charvel San Dimas to the collection. The Dimarzio super Distortions are also a nice touch.

      @@martyshwaartz971 I have 4 Les Pauls, 1 with an Alnico 8, one with alnico 5 and 2 with ceramic, the ceramic magnets are really different in a number of ways. They are sharper sounding, really clear clean, and aggressive in a different way to the Alnico 8, a bit sterile even, the Alnico 5 is totally different, a lot smoother, I mainly use the alnico 8 as I like it's aggressive edge and sound. If you think all pickups sound the same you're completely wrong.

    I remember in the early 00s a shop close to me had...3x Jackson crackle finish strats, one of the Kramer Barretta Planet artist editions. a Kramer Nightswan amd Jersey Star,a Gene Simmons AXE bass copy, a Charvel crackle finish strat, the Hotel Californina, Miami and NY Kramer art guitars, a Charvel double HB telecaster and about a 20 different Strats. Amazing time to be a guitar buyer. Especially in the UK in a small town.

      Jackson’s are fantastic to play but if you’re a stickler for the feel of a neck nothing in metal rivals charvel right now. Hands down my most comfortable guitar. Loaded with EMGs and a hardtail it’s everything you could ever want from a super Strat !

      Glenn's point is more that pickups make minimal difference compared to the speaker you use.

      These bigger brands have no choice now to use SS frets for what they charge for a guitar , especially when you have budget guitars selling for $200 using them. These small mostly unknown brands have forced the big boys to up their game and that's a good thing IMO!
