Sunday blues

Ending the Sunday playing my Ibanez RG521 & using the DAW Jazz King pick throughout. This guitar is equipped with one of my current favourite pickups, Seymour Duncan's Alpha/ Omega pair. They are both very good for distortion & smooth overdrive settings. The Jazz King has that thick, rounded edge which makes fast riffing a breeze. Since the edge is tapered as well, it's equally adept to solos. 

The blues

Was at Beez's earlier today to get this done. My Ibanez RG521 now sports a pair of Seymour Duncan humbuckers: Alpha (n)/ Omega (b). These are available at Davis GMC/ 35 GA. 

Just to be clear, I'm not a Periphery fan, not into Mark Holcomb either so the Alpha/ Omega purchase wasn't about trying to sound like anyone in particular. Unlike signature guitars, I'm OK with putting good money into signature pickups. Through my set up, I sound nothing like the endorser's tone. Since my tonal expedition with George Lynch's Screaming Demon humbucker, I know better than dismissing pickups by virtue of their endorser association. Still in testing mode, will update the sonic performance soon. 😁

Re-string at CCK: AO

This guitar belongs to a member of parliament here, I worked on it yesterday:

• Fretboard treatment- cleaned + re-moisturized
• Polished frets
• Lubricated nut
• Re-string

The brand- Alpha Omega. If you are of a certain age, you'll remember this brand, don't see it being sold here any more.

The guitar gives off a deep, warm tone. The body here looks big, almost concert-like.

Strings used- Ernie Ball Everlast, coated phosphor bronze\, a set of .011...
