Gun salute

There are actually many shred-worthy guitars around; it's not far-fetched to conclude that every manufacturer has something in store for the fleet-fingered. Availability is another issue altogether, yes? The above BC Rich Gunslinger model is new for 2011 & it's an absolute stunner; BC Rich don't just churn out pointy units for the slaughtering heavy metal dweebs, yes? Just wish it's available here for our considerations.

EDIT: The manufacturer's website specified the humbuckers here to be DiMarzio's X2N but I'm not aware this humbucker comes in the pole-pieces version as depicted above.

Yes sir.. Maple fretboards.. I checked sd site, they reccommend the SH11 for bright sounding guitars

SH-11 would work- have one in my RG321, it stay put there :-) the SH-15 would also work.

for guitars with a dual action locking whammy bridge, the PATB-1 should be a consideration as well.
