Not exactly metal, but brilliance from a guitar god none the less

I don't have the UV anymore, but I do have a Bartolini loaded VWH handy at all times You never know when you're going to have to go off!

 

[Omar B]

How are those Bartolini? Active I assume? Hotter than the Evos? sorry man, but I will never use anything but passive Dimarzios. It's all about the X2N/Super 2 layout.

 

[jim777]

No, they're passive. They're medium low output (between 6.6 and 8), with excellent string separation, so they really make for a perfect fusion/soloing set. They're not great for strumming rhythms, but perfect for soloists. I was able to put away my hollowbody once the Barts were in the Jem. I can still solo with distortion and play along with the occasional DT disk, but jazz and fusion is where I live and these really nail that. Nowhere near as high output as an X2N

Yes Ronnie James Dio was a great front man and his voice was awesome to listen too.

Turn it up!

Cool man. I usually use high output (Evo, X2N, Super Dist) but there's a charm and clarity in low and med output (Paf Pro, Air Norton) that i just love.

You got the new Sabbath yet? awesome!
