I put a haz-copy in my NS20004 and it definitely sounds significantly different than the stock EMG, more mid focus and warmer overall. Less articulate than the EMG but more growliness and grind. Also less of the crisp and clear hi-fi type sound to the treble. YMMV but that's my experience with it.

My family and I are in the middle of packing and moving (have to find a place, pack and move there in 3 weeks) so I can't officially start till October 4th, but my training began today and will continue until I begin the first week of October.

So whenever you guys need to get a hold of gear, now you really can call me and I will do whatever I can to find you what you need, no matter how esoteric it may be, or if it's on the website or not.
Congrats Steve.........you were already doing that job unpaid weren't you! LOL SMILE

With all this abuse I have actually gotten my right hand index finger to the point of playing at 200 plus BPM. Which is pointless now since I don't play metal anymore. LOL!
Peace all,

That is just frickin' awesome Steve! Good things still happen to great people. I am honored and happy to be the other side of karma, with all you did for me, you deserve nothing but happiness. I just wish I hit the lottery so I could buy each member of this club a brand new NS-2 to thank you all...

+1! And I thought I was having a mind lapse as I used that one before. Try using "Huggy Bear" from Starsky and Hutch".
