Remember to buy at least decent monitors, if you don't have them yet! There's plenty of mixing tutorials, advices and guides out there. Google helps a lot :)

Hey I've been interested in the Emerald pickup for a while, and saw that you recently installed it and plan on making a video comparing Juggs/Aftermath. Will that be posted soon? And can you speak more on the emerald and your experience :)

Yes, it will be posted once I finish relocating studio/house. The emerald neck is bright, stratty-ish, crunchy, defined and plenty of character :)

Do you think that a 5 pieces rosewood-maple neck would work well? maple's brightness would pair with rosewood warmth?

At that point, it's much more of an aesthetic choice than actual tone change. There are much more important factors than that regarding tone.
What you say might be true theoretically but in practice every cut of wood sounds different, you might find a very dark sounding maple and a super bright rosewood, it all depends: cut, quality, origin, density, etc.
Btw, I personally find maple not bright but kinda "hard" sounding in the mids, and rosewood might be warmer as a fretboard but as a neck wood it actually provides lots of presence and deep lows at the same time.

Was wondering which BKP would suit my Les Paul? It's a walnut body and I'm looking for something that's versatile but maybe specialises in rock? Looking at the rebel yell, is there any better recommendations you'd make?

Rebel Yell could work very well, Black Dog is another favourite of mine.

Dici che un Lundgren M6 neck messo al ponte sia una pazzia?

No, in realtà pure Johan Lundgren stesso di persona mi ha detto che se voglio il carattere del Lundgren ma meno output e un suono un attimo più rotondo, quello al manico va benissimo!

Dude do you think that a guitar with juggernauts(bridge)/another with Alnico Blackhawk(Bridge) in rhythm (panned 75%,2 tracks)and another guitar with emg(60 neck) on leads could work on a mix? I mean I know post processing and mastering should make the job... is it a weird combination?

Dude you're WAAAAAY too overthinking it. Just use your best sounding guitar for rhythm and your best lead guitar for leads, that's it. Don't pan 75% with two tracks but only 100%.
Even if you use super crappy Squier Hello Kitty pickups, a good engineer/mixer could obtain a KILLER sound out of it. Pickups are important, but are just one part of the chain.

I absolutely love your playing. I first found you through your JPXI-7 sweeping video and I have never heard anyone play so fast and clear with distortion. How do you do it?

Thanks man, much appreciated :) there's only one answer: PRACTICE! Put the proper time into your passion, it takes years.

do you use synthesized bass at all?

You mean programmed bass? I prefer to record an actual one. As far as synth-bass sounds, yea I love some of them for sure! They sound very '80s :)

does the CT74 only come with the rounded headstock?

No, you can choose a lot of headstock shapes. Just go on their website and click on the guitar builder!

I've been playing chords and classic rock riffs for the last 8 years. Your video has given me hope thanks Francesco!

Thanks for watching it dude :)
