That is a beautiful axe. Im strongly considering the Hellraiser. I love your amp. I have the Katana Mk2 Artist, it has a great sound but in playing the 212 at Guitar Center, i think the 212 has a slightly better sound. But the Artist has the controls on the front face and a few more tonal options.

Hey. Thanks for the kind words. The 2x12 sounds BIG eh? Unfortunately, I've sold mine. Now I just run my axe through the BOSS GX-100 and direct into the PC via USB.

That is a beautiful guitar. You can get pretty good guitars nowadays at a decent price. How do you like the Seymour Duncans compared to stock pickups? Also, don't be afraid of playing wrong notes. You will find that out of key notes can have interesting sounds like in Jazz/blues. Keep it up!

Thank you... Unfortunately, I had to stop playing for a while... Life got in the way. Hopefully I'll be back to practicing again this year. The stock Ceramics sounded 'harsh', 'fuzzy', and kinda 'undefined' to me... Don't get me wrong, they are perfectly good pups, it's just my personal preference. I chose the Pegasus and Sentients for their articulation and the 'cleaner' and more 'precise' sound. I modded this guitar with the intention for it to be versatile enough to handle most stuff, and I guess it does that now. Regarding the wrong notes... LOL... I guess it's the OCD in me. I try to make every note sound as clean and precise as I can in practice. I mean, why compromise just because I'm a noob? Just build up good habits and technique from day 1 and it should serve me well down the road as I progress. Once again, thank you for your kind words, annd for taking the time out to leave a comment. I really appreciate it.

It is a good guitar out of the box. I personally am not a big fan of the diamond pickups, but it's just a matter of personal preference. If you're just a casual player like me, this Omen-6 is more than enough for normal playing. Having said all that, it would be better for you to go to a guitar store near you to physically see and feel the guitars for yourself to decide what you like. :)

how is the tuning stability on this badboy?
@apingo-thatnewbieguitarguy2338

I didn't use the stock tuners for long before installing GraphTech Ratios on it. BUT, the stock tuners are very stable as expected of a hardtail. Think I just tuned it once after I brought it home, and it stayed in tune for the few weeks or a month before I modded it.

If you haven't fixed the sticky knob, it is super easy. I have same guitar (different color) what's happening is the knob is rubbing on the veneer. Take a small Allen head and loosen the set screw in the knob and slide the knob up. it only needs about 0.5-1mm. Tighten set screw and you are all good to go!

Hey, Thanks for the tip. Sorry, I haven't updated you guys with another video since this one. I've actually gutted the entire guitar and modded it to within an inch of its life a couple of days after uploading this one... And yes, the knob was installed a bit skewed and was rubbing against the top. Everything is sorted now since I changed out all the electronics and knobs. Basically, only the Body, Neck, Nut, and the string ferrules are stock on the guitar now. Tried to film the mod process, but I really dun wanna mess things up doing 2 things at the same time. You guys will see it when I start posting videos of my practice sessions.

I want to pick up another guitar. I haven't played in many, many years. I'm looking for a thin neck guitar that's reasonably priced, looks and sounds great. This is one of the models I ua e my eye on.

You won't regret it!! The Thin C neck profile is really VERY comfortable and feel less 'flimsy' than the Ibanez wizard necks... And if you predominantly play lead and/or faster licks, the 14" fretboard radius is perfect for it!!
