Members zantor9 Posted September 26, 2010 Members Share Posted September 26, 2010 Yeah, the C-1's are amazing for the price, and then some. I went to GC expecting to get a Gibson LP Studio faded or whatever, or PRS SE Single cut. I played the C-1 and it really felt like a much better guitar. And the Mayhem set is just what they call two Duncan Distortions (SH-6n/SH-6b). They're great, and with the Coil Split it's a really versatile set. http://www.bluestarmusic.com/Seymour-Duncan-Distortion-Mayhem-Set-of-Two-SH-6-Humbuckers-Black-P839.aspx EDIT - I've tried to do a tone vid, but I'm currently struggling with getting a good amp tone Nice. I've heard many good things about those pups. Lamb of God uses them but since they are passives, then it should be easy to play many genres of music. I didn't know they had coil split though...that would make tonal options more diverse. I am more of an SD Invaders type guy though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then i'll bet you'd love Carvin's DC 127's i rarely use my coil splitters so i dont go for them as often as others would. I dont have an ear for tone like many others...if someone played a les paul on a mahogany body, and an SG on a maple body, both with the same pups, i couldn't tell the difference. So i can't tell a big difference in tone after splitting the coils. That's just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a big difference with cleans and light distortion, but with a lot of gain really I can only tell if there's buzzing or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard some good clips on the same guitar with maple fretboard, and then rosewood. The maple definitely had better cleans but the rosewood was great with higher gain.

I've decided to go with Ebony for anything that's not Maple. In other words, no Rosewood anymore. I just don't like it. And to get back on track, As Blood Runs Black is always fun, although they're Drop C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a list of some Sevendust songs in Drop B off the top of my head. I might have some of them wrong, because they will sometimes tune to a DADGAD tuning, but in B. Bitch, Terminator, Too Close To Hate, Prayer, My Ruin, Denial, T.O.A.B, Praise, Dead Set, Follow, Redefine, Disease, Broken Down, Hero, Ugly, Pieces, Splinter, Inside, Faithless. Sevendust is one of my favorite bands of all time. Highly underrated when it comes to songwriting and live performance in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
