F%^&*( EVH, He is just another guitarist, Yeah he may have sold millions of records , he can do what he wants with his tone and guitars, has no bearing on what I do, or want to achieve
Yea I'm really not an EVH fan at all, and I love my volume and tone controls, thats for sure!

I think its amazing though, what your pickups actually sound like when the controls are out of the equation. Its like a different world. If they could make a set of pots that were full bypass when you turned them up to 10, I'd be interested... Either that or some nifty wiring trick... Hmmm.
