with paul gilbert I don´t need a teacher.

I learned it all directly from the man himself and now it´s up to me to put as much effort into it as necessary to become a beast like he is

[AshFromCan]

"because any time you bend its cool." amen.

[jacobguitarman]

sounds oddly like Sienfeld

[JadeMonkeyBand]

In my opinion, PG's tone with the laneys on GOOMY fucking rocked.

@shreddybits

Yeah, i've been thinking about the Evos, I had the choice between them and the TZs, but I dunno, I think if I get a guitar more suited all around for shred, i'd throw them in.

[shreddybits]

@trinoply Yeah, I get you. Personally I find the Air Norton's give you alot of tonal variation, esp. With lead playing. Tone and volume control with them gives you alot of expressive power. Have you considered maybe using Steve Vai's Evolution pickups?

[trinoply]

@shreddybits

I love both though because even though they're cleaner sounding pickups than the other crazy pickups dimarzio decides to make, the tonezones and air zones still have some of the hottest pickups out there. I want kind of a gemmy jazz sound, and those air zones will be able to give me that neck full roundedness, then the TZs give me like that PG staccato twang if i'm playing leads.

[shreddybits]

@trinoply Go for it man. Personally, not a fan of the Tone Zone, the Air Norton (BUCKETHEAD!!!!!) sound much better imho, and the guitars I've played that have them just feel so right.

[trinoply]

@shreddybits

Yeah, the TZs have a bridge and neck version.

I was thinking about throwing an air zone in my neck though because it has a softer clean than the tone neck does.

[shreddybits]

@trinoply More than likely, however if there's a denomination between the pickups, like a model voiced specifically for the neck, then he's likely using that, otherwise, they're the same pickups.

[trinoply]

@shreddybits

I love the tonezone. I have one in my bridge. Is he using tone zones in the bridge and neck together?

[YummyBananaFish]

@shreddybits I think it's just a one-off, rather than being based on a production model. Either way, this is one of my favourite guitars of his! Looks classy and sounds smooth, tis nice.
