I'm torn between that in Black Cherry or a red or buttercream Les Paul Custom 70s reissue. Two quite different machines for quite different numbers, but I know what i'm getting with the les paul, but what of the Mockingbird? How do they play and feel? They're famously shreddy and fast guitars, and appropriately massive and heavy from being mostly maple with a little mahogany on the sides, but how does it compare?

I’ve been listening to too much van halen and toto and classic 80s and late 70s rock and i’m itching for more of that power amp sag. How do i achieve more of this in my sound? I’ve found post-eqing a little extra oosh around 4500Hz helps, but EVH has so much more, as do many of the tones i obsess over. How should i supplement? Take my tube screamer out of the front of the amp and crank the gain by hand? Idk what to do here.

Y'know the big ones you see on pinterest and such that is on the ceiling and is over the entire bed? Those. Can't find one online for the life of me. Where do i look? What do i look for? How do i hold eye contact with the poor guy who has to install it? i am not diy-ing this they come down so often. I'm in the uk, to narrow the search criteria a little.

Any advice, folks?
