    Trying to make a decision on new amp head

    Sorry for the double post but I should probably add that the guitarist I play with uses a Vox Ac30 and I struggle too be heard over that with the Mag 300. Although i know Wattage is a poor measurement of volume would the 1000W SVT-7 be much louder than say the 500w Tone hammer?

    Replacing pickups on an OLP MM22

    Thanks for your help guys. I have decided to go with 2 Seymour duncan music man replacements and to replace the OLP pre amp with a Seymour duncan one. This should give me a pretty awesome stingray like tone which is what i want.
