                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thanks Nuno<br>Very nice !  Congratulations.  I'm suprised you found the Omen 6 light.  They aren't super heavy but do have some heft.  They have a basswood body though and basswood is light.  Mine wasn't heavy compared to my Les Pauls but did weigh a ton compared to my Jackson.  I think all the weight is in the beefy maple neck though.  My Jackson is basswood with a sliver thin neck and the body is thin as well.  Mahogony guitars tend to be heavier.  As far as the pickups I wasn't overly impressed with the ones on my Omen 6.  I'm sure the EMG's sound much better.  Can't wait to hear it.<br><br>PS You should have better tuners on your Damien as well.   :wink:

Honestly, after the ESP the Omen felt very lightweight :-) These EMG's def sound much better  :mrgreen: <br>A beautiful-looking guitar, indeed. If it sounds as good as it looks.....!<br><br>Damien? Omen 6? You do realise you're going to have to learn "O Fortuna" from Carmina Burana, don't you?<br><br> :D  :D  :D <br><br>Vic

LOL - I love O Fortuna, perhaps it will sound even better with loads of distortion  :lol:  :lol: <br><br>When things settle down a bit with work, you and Ray will have to come round for another jamming session.<br><br>Ray / Dogbite<br><br>I was a bit nervous about the unmarked fretboard, (although it looks very nice!) I've just put some tiny stickers on the side at the 3rd / 5th and 10th fret, and that seems to work fine, I'm suprised I don't miss the inlays more.  I had ordered some stick on ones from Japan, but think I'll leave them off.<br><br>I'd never thought I'd admit this in a million year, but I prefer it to the ESP - so thats now in Drop D tuning...   :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:]]></content:encoded>
