Velocity Screaming Deal Build

my peavey Raptor was basically the same shape

That thing served me well as a first guitar..
 
I hope you like it.  The logo on the body was my sons idea.
This looks like something PRINCE would play.  I personally hate middle pickups.  I find them obtrusive...but he likes it.

 
Looks great, DM. That's an interesting combination of pickups. I don't put middle pickups in myself but it looks like he was going for more tone options.
 
Very cool DM, and I agree I do not like middle pups either, unless all three pups are the same...  :headbang:
 
Here are some tones.  Filmed with a Samsung Galaxy.  It sounds really good.  I am happy with the pickup choices too.  He is playing with some high gain.  I will record some clean tones next

The video is marked "private" and so won't play for us regular folks who wear sneakers, or the occasional python boot.
 
I am quite happy with these GFS pickups.  I have found GFS pickups are either great or horrible.  The P90 models I have chosen sound great.  I also really like the VEH humbucker.  The lipstick is good, but I have nothing to compare it too.

My son was on a budget sand this is where he saved some money (aside from the super price on the screaming deal body for $150) and you could never tell.
 
Tremendous end result! I didn't have the vision at the beginning but what a great looking and unique axe! Sounds great through that Orange too!
