I think you did a nice job. I see what you were going for with the matched scratchplate and it does look nice, I think I’d have gone for more of a contrast in colour, but good job.
I love the bridge and TOM, chrome is better than gold IMO, gold just wears off….
Nice guitars. I’ve had mine quite a long time now and the tuners need replacing. The original white has faded to a cool cream with a tinge of green. The gold hardware has also tarnished in a nice way.
It still plays great other than the tuner slipping…
To answer your other 2 questions…
Feedback shouldn’t be a problem if you have good pickups, and Iommi often uses some tasteful feedback.
For Iommi’s solos he turns up his volume on the guitar. That’s pretty much it apart from when he adds Wah or delay, but he doesn’t use a volume boost for...
Hi there.
Sounds like you have a cool setup. I’m a big Iommi fan too. I have used the Sabbra cadabra pedal but I sold it as I found it too noisy.
I use SGs with P90s too.
My best rig for pure Iommi style tone was the Laney VH100R amp head through my old carlsbro 4x12. Amp handled all overdrive...
Nice guitar man, enjoy it!
I have an SG special and really like the bridge pup in that, but I think that’s a 490T too.
I have a few with Iommi humbuckers and they sound great.
Otherwise I’m on P90s these days in my SG juniors. Bare Knuckle Pig 90s. Amazing.
I’m sure Bare Knuckle also do amazing...
Hey folks!
For anyone interested, here is a minute and a half clip of me rocking out the Harley Benton DC-60 Junior, loaded with a Bare Knuckle Pig 90, Schaller 456 bridge, 50s wiring harness from James’ Home of Tone.
Rig is Korg Pitchblack Mini, Dunlop CAE Wah, Mooer Phaser, Mooer Green Mile...
Wow, that nut looks like it has been broken and repaired…
Honestly my Harley Benton has better neck finishing.
That’s such a shame, I’m not knocking Gibsons, I have one too.
Hope you get it sorted to your liking, that looks like a lovely colour. Any full pics of the guitar?
