  1. Chris, Ok, that's great. By the way, I see now that I owe you around ten bucks for S&H then -- given those 15 you're mentioning here. I'm sending them to you tonight -- my email is <lemalhereux@hotmail.com>, so you'll be able to do the follow-up. Thanks, Zorrow
  2. Hello, I wanted two XL-sized HFC T-shirts: one dark green, one purple. I placed my order last August 5. So far, I have no news. I wonder if shipping to Canada was a problem, or if not every order was fulfilled. Is there any other Canadian around here that already received his/her T-shirts? Thanks for your help!
  3. Nevermore. Their last album, "This Godless Endeavor", is worth a listening. I also make the last albums from John Sykes ("Bad Boys Live") and George Lynch ("Furious George") to spin endlessly.
  4. I think the Distortion is a great pickup for heavy metal soloing. It gives me that "milky" sound I head for, with plenty of overtones. It has a high output, full of middles and highs, and just a fair amount of lows. In addition, it never gets muddy. It always produce a very well-defined sound, with a lot of sustain. Nevertheless, you'll have to combine your bridge Distortion with something "fatter" in the middle or neck position if you want to play rhythms full of "meat", with a darker edge. I recommend getting Cold Rails (or Hot Rails, if you prefer more output) for the middle and neck positions in order to enrich your lower frequencies range. By the way, I have something interesting to mention here: I replaced the stock Duncan Designed HB102 in the bridge position of my Californian import by a true TB-6; and to be fair, there's no big difference. The TB-6 just keeps the output at the same (high) level in the highest notes (beyond fret 22 in the high E string). Apart from that, the cheap HB102 is almost as good as the TB-6 -- which for me is a sheer surprise.
