Can you PM me the price you're asking for it?

I see there's a lot of different aproaches here. Very interesting.
I use 3 fingers to acheive speed. Like Galilee I use a very percussive technique, I hit the strings with a lot of strenght so I can hear that "clack".
My playing style is very similar to that of Alex Webter when it comes to right-hand technique, and he's not my main influence.
In terms of harmony I follow the riffs but I make some fills and in some cases where I have space I like to play a different riff instead of the one the guitars are playing. I also like to use a lot of chords, but only diads for now (two note chords). -
Some of the people here must play some agressive music. What's your approach to technique and harmony in this style?

I has more to do with you attack then your gear or EQ. You can grow some nails but having a strong (and I mean STRONG) attacks may cause a clank that aprocimates the sound of a pick. But it's different though. I use both techniques (fingernails and strong attack) in separrate ways for two different sounds.

My perfect rig would be a Dingwall Z2 with a slightly different shape (some pointy edges, for the metal you know ) with a flame top with a black see-through finish. The body wood would have to be something like Walnut, to give some REALLY strong mids, and the fingerboard would be ebony, the darkest possible. It would be a 5er, or maybe a 6er.
I would have another just like it but in green or red see-through and with a fretless fingerboard made of ebony.
Then I would have 2 Trace Elliot V4. One would go through a Berg NV215 and the other through a NV610.
On both I would have them very clean except for a slight boost on master volume for some power tube distortion. -
For that price costumers must be expecting something high end, not like the cheap Laneys, so that comparision when you say, "But it's a Laney" is not right.
But tubes blowing on two models just by turning on, that's awful. -
