Im just bored (again) and curious so i made another poll (i started the fave pickup combo poll)
How do you guys and girls play and why? I play all rock and i play with a pick. I play in the middle of the neck and bridge as the bridge is to high in the trebles. The neck is alright,it is very warm sounding. However if i move closer into the middle, i retain the same warmth but with added punch!
This is just my opinion, what do you guys think? |

Seems to help me with some lines. |

From the neck to the bridge,that way we can have better control of the tone we create.
Not that i do it, I found my sweet spot around the bridge.
