New addition to the family

Post by LeperMessiah26 »

I would like to welcome my youngest baby Het to the family... He today joined his sisters Leslie-Paula and Synystra and I could not be more over the moon!

Great one! Congratz :) I was supposed to get it, too. But I need a guitar with tremolo, so I guess I'll buy some other one.

Nice! One of the nicer looking new guitars Hetfield got the last couple of years. :)

Looks great, was hoping to pick myself up one in the near future. The pickups are awesome, I've a set in a Les Paul and they are way better than the standard EMG 81 & 60 that he used to put in his guitars (though they are really good too)

I have a tremolo on the Synyster Gates custom I have, I don´t use the trem much though!

I played the Iron Cross through a big ass Marshall at the guitar store and it sounded awesome! I just thought they were regular stock pickups with his name on, but he has modified them right?

They're active pick ups based on the 81 & 60 but with some passive characteristics. I have EMGs in most of my guitars, various combinations 81/81, 81/85, 81/60 & the 'Het Set' all of which sound great in their own right (The 81/60 combo being my favourite prior to Hetfields signature set) I've modded the 'het set' as well, running them off 18V rather than the standard 9V which gives them even more punch it seems like to me. I just think they are great and even though I can be a bit of a fan boy at times it really isn't the case here.

This is what James has to say about them: 'Het Set'
