Re: I want my SG to sound like AC/DC
I read through the quite a few threads but hardly came upon a clue as to what the High Voltage set really is like. What pickup it sounds like, first and foremost, and then how it departs from that. Pearly Gates is pointed to in the description of the set, but I didn't see much endorsement for that view either (I don't hear so much AC/DC in Pearly, there is something soft or mellow about its sound that doesn't fit in for me, probably because of the A2) I guess some 300 hundred bucks is requisite to learn about it. I can listen to Angus but he sounds like himself whatever you put in his hands, and his rig and playing situation is not ordinary. One of the forumers has written a review on it on another site, I kindly appreciate, but he is very careful not to 'spill the beans on' what he hears from the CS people. Maybe spilling some beans would be good for everybody in this case.
And then the Brobucker. It is said to be dark, and it is said to sound very AC/DCish. I don't know how these two descriptions go together, they must both be correct somehow I am sure. In any case hope to hear what the OP ends up with and how he fares. I am also hoping to read and understand more of the pickups mentioned.
