Re: Full shred mahogony
the full shred would do the trick and would be tighter than a stock invader; but unless you specifically want an alnico sound for leads you may prefer a ceramic magnet for metal rhythm tones. an invader with hex screws from a super distortion (same size screw and thread without the big heads) is the best i've tried with the same woods and bridge set-up, but i never got around to putting a ceramic mag in a full shred yet either.
unless you really want to mess around, i'd get the full shred

FS + Mahogany = Opeth. Can be as warm and rich as you like, or as cold and precise as you like, yet always filled with singing tone; and as responsive as you could ever wish. Since the heavier strings are the best all in this equation, I'd imagine that a 7th string would be to die for!

love your bands sound, what pickup are you using for your low rhythms in battle for the sky?

Re: Full shred mahogony
is it true the that full shred is just a modified JB? ive read that in these forums once, but either way this pickup still intrigues me as well. its like it could be the JBs bigger modified super brother (with less fat). and without that mid spike and yet it still retains aggression is awesome to my senses :burnout:

Thanks!
I didn't play on that album but as far as I know, at least half the rhythms were:
Schecter 006 Elite (Mahogany/Maple body, Mahogany/Rosewood neck) with a Full Shred bridge into a Rocktron Prophesy, Peavey solid state Power amp, into a Mesa 4x12 Cab (Celestion V30s and also with insulation stuffed inside to dampen some weird ringing)
The other guitar, I'm not sure, could've been an LTD Eclipse with EMG HZs, or a Jackson Dinky with a JB, through the same amp/cab setup.
Thanks!

JB's bigger modified sibling is the Invader. Same coil, maybe wound a bit hotter, only with heavy huge screws in both coils and a thick ceramic magnet with boosters.
Full Shred is 14.6K. If it's 44AWG, it's rather underwound. Looks more like a Custom 5 (43AWG) with short hex screws in both coils, only wound a tad hotter.

The guitar is a seven string. I don't think they make the Pearly gates in a 7 version. I would try one in the neck otherwise.
