Thanks wokka! I'm using a cheap Wilkinson humbucker which was spare. It's high output so still sounds pretty decent. It plays well because I set it up for low action with 9s and drop E tuning. Will do a demo soon!

You can rip man! Great demo
holy crap Simon that playing was outstanding and very much like Eddys playing, you must have practiced so many hours.
I'm a massive Eddy fan and you pulled off an amazing demo and the build looks fantastic.
And must be most best dressed video player on the forum !
