Teles are my absolute guitar of choice. Pickups are personal. EMGs are great fro that metal sound, but there's a ton of options. I like the Gibson 59s, The SD Distortion, The Tone Zone, Lollar single coils...all great.

The PV is being worked out. In all honesty, You can't beat a strat or tele if you want a strat or tele. So with PV, I'm just working on a spaceship, the 7 string baritone V, in grey...and we're on the second prototype. It's a Ziltoid guitar and super cool. When the chips are down though, and I want to play a tele, or a les paul, thats what I play.

If I can work out some details, the V might be introduced at Namm...it's a hard process though, PV are huge.

I totally agree. I have had a Koa tele for about a year and a half now, and I don't play anything else. It has a coil tap...So I can use my two Duncan JB's as single coils if I want. The clean tone is amazing, and with a great amp (like a 5150) it has an insane rounded bottom end. I love passive pickups!

For a thousand bucks you gould buy an esp ltd 8 string with emg 808 active pickups just like the one in my vid here. 8 strings are a load of fun to play.

Haha not everyone needs 8 strings, but I would love to dick around on one.
How is yours tuned?

Same man, I played one of these and everything about it was amazing, had some EMG'S thrown in and its absolutedy amazing to play. I'd highly recommend tele's, especiall the Jim root or one of these custom fmt HH's. -

rounded bottom

Anyhoo. That sexy red tele above ^ is gorgeous. Wouldn't mind one of those.

There are some indications that a leak of "Addicted" might be imminent. One popular site has posted the song 'Addicted' this morning. This might be the first tentative step toward a full leak.

Glad I already placed my pre-order for "Addicted" so I can download with a clear conscience. It's money well spent!

maybe they just stole it from the AOL noise creep site ( even i recorded it with nero soundwave xD)

Right now CGCGCGCE but I drop it as low as A for a super growly sound I had to put a bass string on it tho.

I havent pre-ordered.
Im not buying anyhing until the box-set.
Ill still download with a clear conscience.
I wonder what Dev really thinks about my behaviour.

Am I a thief? A "temporary-thief"?
What about the high-income-fan who only pays normal price although he could easily afford 10 times that sum?

Do I really have to buy a record?
Wouldnt it be better for the environment if I just paypal'ed Devin, downloaded the flac-rip off some site and listened to it in all its glory?

Is it really a good thing that everyones buying the uber package with all those hoodies? Who made those? What will they cost the world in shipping-emissions and child-labor before they are even worn? (disclaimer; that thing about child-labor has most probably nothing with these specific hoodies to do if Devin lives up to what I expect from him but it's a "typical" child-labor possible item)

And yes, this post is probably a little bitter but its full of good intentions and wishes for a better world. Im actually quite Addicted to the whole planet in all its increasing entropy.
Not just Addicted to Addicted. And KI, and Hummer and Punky Bruster and...

So stoked about all that guitar talk btw. Mmmm Guitars...

It sounds like your rationalizing. There are ways to support artists and pay them for their work without worrying about child labor and emissions. There are no shortage of companies willing to sell you the mp3's legally when the album is released. It seems duplicitous to suggest piracy as a remedy to your ethical dilemmas...

Yeah don't try to take any kind of moral highground GEEZE at most just try to explain how it's some sort of situation where you're not making anything worse than it would be.

Don't want to be a dick, but if you're really THAT concerned who makes the hoodies and what not just email CM. I'm sure they'd be happy to tell ya.
