Re: Best guitar for a Full Shred set
Lower-k pots cut more treble; IIRC, it's got something to do with there being less resistance between the hot and ground. The FS set doesn't seem that bright to me, but I've never played one in a Les Paul (or anything with any amount of maple).
Err, obligatory reference to Opeth's album, Damnation.

Re: Best guitar for a Full Shred set
I would think it they would be too bright and thin in an Alder guitar. I really like'em in a basswood guitar with an EQ in the loop of my amp to boost the low mids...but LOVE them in a mahogony guitar!! Total sonic bliss!! And I've been using FS for years...

IMO, I have used the FS in may different guitars and have always had good results. IMO, it is not very guitar picky.

Since the FS is sometimes critized for being bright and sterile (which I disagree with), a guitar with lots of resonance would help with that. That would probably mean a lighter, softer, warmer sounding wood.
