Two things...The expression '5x5' comes from the world of trucking. Truckers, on their CB radios, are always checking in with each other, to make sure everyone's OK and no one is stuck on the side of the road due to engine trouble or what have you. Inside the cab of one of their trucks, you'll see two stick shifts, because those vehicles have two sets of five gears, or 'five by five.' The term is meant to communicate that a trucker is OK, everything's working, no assistance needed. Secondly, after years of drooling over the offerings on the Kiezel site, especially the Allan Holdsworth models which are triple chambered, I designed a guitar for myself based on that, but which had a non-locking tremolo too. It's a lot of money, but the quality of the instrument (which has yet to arrive) and what I'll be able to do with it make the cost worth it to me.
Dropped in a treble bleed curcuit, and swapped the middle and neck pickup positions on the pickgaurd. This gives me the neck dominant positions I prefer, over middle. The beauty of it is there's no wiring changes, and it's easily reversible. Now I can back the volume way down, and it still sounds crispy. Rosewood fretboard looks sick with Gunmetal Grey. One of my only guitars that needed very few mods. Definitely more P90'ish than singlecoil sounding pickups.

Louis ask Zzounds to send you a Blood Eagle from Wylde Audio. Great company Zzounds and Sweetwater is wonderful. It's good to shop around
I love the new PRS SE NF3… the maple in metallic orange is on my wishlist!
Whats the red numbers display behind you? The Andertons have something similiar and always wondered what it is
A decibel meter obviously...
@@uwedasler425 thank you captain
Catching Replay.. Hey Louis How Are You.
Love New Hope..
Might not really be a feature but it is true.
Steve from Boston is working with zzounds and doing weekly reviews. Kind of redundant don’t you think .
More than one guitar RUclipsr out there, no? SFB is a fantastic player too!
Everything but spec info is marketing.
