Hi Rich
Have you tried an MM Blues?
it certainly isn't "Banjoey" or "Plunky" ...I would say "Growly" ..

Hi Stevie
not sure why TBH .. This is from the SIXTUS website .....
"Although being a magnetic pickup, this pickup is remarkably true to the genuine sound of the resonator guitar. To adjust the output of the b- and e-string of acoustic phosphor bronze string sets shift the lid aside and move the "poleShade magnets" in their slot. Closer to the middle means more dampening. Then shut the lid and fix the pickup on the guitar. For electric guitar strings simply take out the pole shade magnets."

Hi Michael
when you say nickel are those the same as normal electric guitar strings?
If so then the magnets need to be removed ..

Jono, now you've discovered Roy Rogers have a look at this one and notice his non dampening behind the fret from 30 seconds onwards.  ...just sayin' as "they" say. wow awesome track and awesome guitar .... |
