Indoor Saturday, laying low


Indoor Saturday as unemployment looms once more. 5 more days to feeling useless & vulnerable. In this country, if you have no money, it's like precipitating cataclysm. 

Anyway, spent time with the Ibanez ADX120. I dislike the default pickups, it sounds fuzzy with high gain / intense distortion settings. In view of that pickup cavity limitations, majority of the replacement pickups won't fit in there.  The reason I don't play this much these days but the sustain coming from this beast... it's one of the best.


Surprisingly, these two sound good together. The MXR Malmsteen is hyped to deliver a certain distortion voicing but it is capable of churning out other pleasant tones as well. A deserving appraisal soon.
