When you play an HSH guitar, does the single coil pickup get in your way?

Nope, I just lower it if it does but usually I pick in between the single coil and neck pickup.

What pickups do you recommend for a tapping only guitar with low action?

As weird as it sounds, I'd actually recommend something that has less dynamics and is more compressed/high output, to even out all the tapped notes.

Opinion on EMG 707's?

I like them for massive rhythm stuff, expecially chords. They expecially work in brighter guitars. Don't like them for single note techy stuff or leads/solos.

How did you like the string gauges on the TAM100 - heavy bottom light top?

I think it's definitely a good choice to provide massive but tight low end, but still be able to do bends/vibratos on a baritone scale. I personally use 74 + 60 + 9-46.

Have you ever felt like quitting music? How do you get back on track?

Maybe on those "dark moments" it has barely scratched my mind...but in the end music is my purpose in life and I CANNOT quit it! :)

What is the cheapest guitar you would actually buy and play somewhat regularly?

I bought a '89 RG750 for 350$ and I play it everyday...nowadays it's hard to find something that is both very cheap and very playable/enjoyable. There are exceptions though, I'm definitely gonna buy the new Ibanez acoustic 7 which is very cheap!

When are you going to order the VIK? :)

When:
1 - I'll have money to do so
2 - I'll actually need one
3 - He returns to accept orders :)

When you listen to a song, do you always wonder in the back of your mind whether you're able to play it someday? Its been happening to me ever since I started playing guitar and sometimes it drives me nuts haha.

Yes it always happens to me! Last time was with Petrucci's solo on The Enemy Inside. I just said to myself "I'd never be able to reach that alternate picking speed" haha :)

che genere di plettri usi?

Dipende dallo scopo: per assoli e lezioni Dunlop Jazz 3 Max Grip carbon fiber, per ritmiche Dunlop TIII 1.14 oppure Tortex Sharp 1.35, per basso Hufschmid Ultem.

Your friend list is almost full ; how do you pick whose friend request to accept ? Mutual friend number ?

I accept who shares interests and passions with me, delete attention whores, stupid selfies people and whoever posts incredibly idiotic monologues

How did you first meet your friend Reidar? :D

I was playing at the Vik guitars/Hesu amps booth at Musikmesse and he introduced himself :) Very nice guy and also super good player for his age.

i've been your fb friend for a while but i've never really messaged you or posted anything on your wall because you seem like a busy guy. will you ever delete me? i like your photos though!

I don't delete anyone who has common interests and passions with me like music, guitars etc. If you're into what I do, I'm only happy to have you on my friends list :)

do you think the jp13 looks really ugly compared to the rest? is that why we don't really hear about them...because no one is buying?

Actually they sold more JP13s than all other models...or at least a recent pic from their factory suggested so. I personally think the finish is badass and my favourite of all the "X" models, but active preamp and rosewood board don't make me prefer this guitar compared to the others.
But dat's wat da Trooch wants and da Trooch gets!

Do pickup covers fit on Music Man 7 strings or do you have to widen the cavity

I think a very slight route would be necessary. Best is to take measurements of both and go from there :)

Ma Ryan, il ragazzo con il quale hai fatto il video, come li guadagna tutti quei soldi?

Ma saranno cazzi suoi, chiedilo a lui no? :)

What's your opinion on aftermarket Big Sustain Blocks for locking tremolos. Do you think they are worth the money or are they all hype?

Connor Sullivan
I've never tried them, but at the same time for whatever reason I'm pretty sure they work well.

My friend had an accident and his JP6 neck is cracked beyond repair, body is fine though. Is there any place you can order a replacement, preferably the same colour?

Your friend should contact a local Music Man dealer and they'll hopefully sort it out.

What BKP do you recommend for a mahogany neck and body Birdseye maple fretboard 6 string in drop C? Looking for a tone similar to veil of maya and Dillinger escape plan. Versatility is key,from djent to jazz y'know? I want clarity in chords and expressive pick attack, any bridge/neck combo is fine

If it's an all mahogany guitar and you want something that rules both with modern aggressive music and more mellower stuff, Rebel Yell is the one. Go with VH2 in the neck!
