I saw them several times on the And Justice for All Tour and they trainwrecked at least one song a night. Usually Lars’ fault for starting too fast

I played a full three hour gig with it on Friday and I was very happy with it.

I do. It's around here somewhere.

I hate restringing all guitars, but nylon strings the most.

Also, I might look into another rosewood neck to make it sound closer to the other guitar. this is a little too snappy and treble forward for how I play on the gigs I use these guitars for.

Strangely the hot rail is not quite as hot as I though it would be. I actually ave a student coming in with one of my old guitars today with what I think is the original hot rail from this guitar so I might shoot it out.

Actually, three necks (there was a rosewood one at one point) and probably ten-12 pickups. Its the body, bridge and pickguard at this point :)

At the gig. Just had time to put it together before I left so it stayed as a backup for last night. Todays gig was cancelled due to illness so I have a day off. I just need to play with it a bit and possibly change the hotrail to autosplit once I have the time.

Well, I was going to but I didn't realize I was signed up to proctor a second AP class today. :mad:

Pickups showed up last night. Going to try and have it changed over in time for tonight's gig if possible.

Fifteen years later the guitar is getting another facelift. It's got a Warmoth neck on it and Seymour DUncan Antiquity II pickups in it but I've ordered the other older style of Antiquity (I think they are now called "Texas Hot") and a hot rail for the bridge mainly because I need a...

I used an RC Booster for about 10 years on my live board and now its one of the most useful boosts that I use in the Fractal world. I had an OG Analogman King of Tone and the Prince of Tone but didn't really get on with them. The Blues Break-type pedal that I use in the Fractal that I might...

Sure. But for $50 less getting the ToneX pedal gives you great sounds and the option of using the app for recording on your laptop, too. I have both and I think the ToneX is the better product with a wider array of possible amplifiers, and now it has effects built into the OS, too. I'd sell...

How is the player working out? We have both a Kemper Stage and a "Toaster" here at the school and I can never get them to sound very good, even with the IR's I use for everything else.

Its a strange question to me because we have those sounds in our heads but we probably won't sound anything like them if we played through those rigs. Having said that, I think I'd like to try any Van Halen rig from 1984 or earlier and The Edge's rig from the Joshua Tree era.
