I dropped off my Dark Lord at the NAMM booth and although there was some initial confusion he said they'd get my pup issue taken care.
The booth was crazy crazy busy, so I appreciate the time.
Let me tell you guys what I'm running and you can tell me if I'm not explaining this well. I'm running between one of two rigs.
Guitar>board usually with a MXR GT-OD on>a wide panel tweed pro...
Thanks fellas,
I called EBMM this afternoon and talked to Jacob, I believe. He told me it sounded like I had a microphonic pup, maybe two. He said I could send it in and they'd take care of it,...
Hey guys I'm having feedback issues (not harmonic, but microphonic) with my Dark Lord on the middle/bridge and bridge positions. I was wondering if this was normal? I know the single coil is made...
Hmmm....seems most of you prefer a little more cut than it has stock. I'm teetering on it myself.
Gorgeous! I love those the L-III in the emerald....soooo sexy.
Everyone loved the look of the black burst with chrome hardware and pup covers (especially the single coil..wow). It's a very sharp looking visual. My drummer told me he thought it sounded great,...
A couple things come to mind.
First, I've played used LPs for about 15 years (though not exclusively). The thing that makes LPs sound so great (lows/low mids) when we are practicing alone can...
I think they feel pretty good, but the guitars I've tried with SS seemed to have a high end thing I don't care for at all. I have noticed that a lot of guys who use them have "hi-gain" amps so I...
It's going to depend on the VH era. During his EBMM days it was Soldanos, and then the 5150 before he switched to PV. Prior to that he was using a Marshall 1959 Plexi. You are killing people by...
I adore my 25th. It's one of 2 guitars I carry to every gig. II feel like the electronics in the 25th achieve what PRS tried and never really got right. Because of that, my 25th can adequately...
Thank you again kind sir!
Wow, what are the chances I'd had 2 guitars built 4 years apart to the DAY?!
So having owned my 25th for almost a year and a half now I'm still absolutely confounded about the tone. I must admit that one thing that kept me from trying EBMMs was the basswood and poplar...
Thanks AJ!
One more for ya, I remembered to look at the Serial for my 25th Anniversary.

I think the dream theater analogy was right on. The cutaways are different, I don't know how I'd feel about them without playing it. The controls I'd love to play with. All the talk about how thin...
I kinda like reverse headstocks, so I'm probably the wrong guy to ask! Lol
The neck shape is radically different, it feels more like a R9 Les Paul than anything IMO. The neck is what sold me...
Yep, the guy at GC told me about how some had it and other didn't...but I never remember seeing pics of others that didn't have it.
Sorry there's no back pic...I was too enamoured with the FRONT!
I couldn't withstand the draw of it's awesomeness....
So I bought the local Dark Lord!

Holy crap!! I NEED that LIII!!
I DID think about that. You think those guys will be ready to actually move inventory though? I've got a hot/cold relationship with GC.
Well, the guy knows me pretty well and was like "18mos no interest" because I told him I am already sitting on a pile of overpriced lumber. I asked him if it was my lucky day for a deal and he...
I saw a roasted maple neck Dark Lord at GC....and played it.
The GAS, it's out of CONTROL!
If I had tapatalk it would say "sent from a street corner near you trying to get money to buy a Dark...
Thanks for the thoughtful replies everyone. Depending how everything goes down with the bassist and the band I figure I'll work on some original stuff with him in the not too distant future.
