Not Too Shabby
Okay....Some of you might have pondered the results of a bridge pickup in the neck position. Well, nothing exploded, so far, so good, right? I placed a 59b pickup into the neck position of my Ibanez GIO, while a custom custom sits in the bridge position. The clean sound was very full, brilliant, to a point. Very smooth, rich, similar to a full jazz tone. The distortion was par. Nothing spectacular, but I wasn't disapointed. There was one surprise through, and I'm sure there is an explination. The CC sound has become more vintage due to the addition of the 59. Well, I'm not sure if I am going to go with a 59n, or try the CC in the neck and move the 59b to the bridge. The output levels of both are well matched, oddly enough. If you need more bass, more tone in your neck pickup, this might not be a bad option. But a lot of this depends on your equipment as well. I'm not sure if the 59 is split either. The three way selector works fine, with the 59 producing two similar sounds, one with more mids tone, the other less. I did notice that the addition of this pickup has created a small amount of hum. The reason I chose the Ibanez GIO was:
1. Weight, it is incredibly light.

FS: DiMarzio Evolution Neck
For sale I've got a DiMarzio Evo neck, in black, with some obsurd amount of lead...upwards of 15 inches. In like new condition, and I still have the box and receipt. Paid $70 tax, looking to get about 50 shipping, which always comes out to $5.15 in the CONUS for some reason. Let me know if you want it!

ESP/Edwards 59 Les Paul
I have a question that I hope you all may be able to help me with. I have an Ebony ESP/Edwards Limited Les Paul that was billed as the 59 re-issue. It is a beautiful guitar with a 59 in the neck and JB in the bridge, and a classic fat neck. The only problem is when I go to the ESP/Edwards website I cannot find this guitar anywhere. It does not have the Gibson look alike quot;Customquot; emblem on the headstock just Edwards and Limited. I have searched Ebay for a similar one and found several but none in ebony. I had it up for sale on Ebay recently (see surf_wax) but it did not sell and that's ok because I really love it, but I sure would like to know what model it is. I will be happy to provide pictures. If anyone can help I sure would appreciate it. Thanks.

Recommend me a Distortion Pedal
Hails Guys, i´m thinking here...MAYBE, it´s time to replace the Boss Metalzone.
can anyone give me a STRAIGHT UPGRADE on a Distortion Metal Like the metalzone, but BETTER? i mean, with the same tightness, cutting through the mix, mids, but with a more open sound on the HIGHS and a better articulation in the overal Tone!?
