HEY GUYS!!!!
I just want to say thanks for making this thread a success. The idea to start a thread like this was just something that came about in a matter of seconds and the Webmaster seemed to think it was a smart idea and it certainly was!!
We've got a long way to go until we catch up with the tab thread though hehehehe

hmm
he is always being active.
j50BC is passive put an JE-1000 on it and you have an active tone
Same with
EMG-HZ h4 and MM-04
but indeed i made some mistakes
and i dont know you can get lose EMG Covers cause EMGpickups are like melted inside the cover
He used a gainbooster, but he liked passive pickups.
His brand new customs (ESP Scythe and Sawtooth II) have Blackouts.
Custom=/=mass production,
But yeah, mags tend to fuck up.Alexi Fin doesn't have gainbooster neither the hole for it.
It's not the Arrowhead but an Alexi USA the one he used on the DVD, and if the Pink ever had a Blackout it doesn't anymore.

Custom=/=mass production,
I was talking bout the "mass produced" Alexi ESPs you can buy. Thats what the magazines had

but that doesnt make sence hehe
sofar ALMOST all of his guitars are boosted with an onboard gainbooster
that makes the signal Active.
if you take a pickup that is active it self
or take a passive pickup with active board
its still active

SO to get to my point
if you have a active pickup with build in preamp what arvoitus says
or a J50BC passive pickup and a preamp (Je-1000 gainbooster or MM-04) that may be connected outside the pickup
the Signal will still be active.
and a passive signal will sound sucks trough a GP-1000 lee jackson (roope says it himself)
so alexi is an active guy ;-)

My RR with Seymour&Duncan SH5 Custom has very low amount of distortion when played through the GP1000....it's like AC/DC sound. Not metal.

^^Not really. The reason he uses the booster and passive and not a straight active is because booster+passive=higher output than active. Until Blackouts came i suspect though.

@ ChildrenofCOB: the Alexi Fin was the first guitar which came out with MM04 active electronics and has no On/Off Switch...

Why? He had it on Scythe and Arrowheadsince 2004 or so and on Sawtooth since the first moment, why doesn't the Alexi Fin have it?

Hm.. don't know. Maybe because Alexi won't play live with it and said sth. like....ah I don't know. But I don't really care if you can see a mini switch or not.
I'm not really sure, but he also had a JE-1000 in his Stone guitar and this guitar also had no mini switch, or?

we never really can be sure about the pickup's and gainboosters in his older jacksons
roope uses j50BC JE-1000
we all guess alexi also had it
in his stone we cant confirm a JE-1000
his wildchild , Green pin could be a JE-1000/ JE-1200

^Not really. He has always declared himself in love with the J50BC and JE1000 combo, so has Roope. He has never talked of the JE1200. And then Ale gave Alexi a JE1000 when he left COB, and when ESP designed the MM04 they made it for Alexi and it is a copy of JE1000, so I think it's safe saying that both Wildchild and green pinstripes have JE1000s, and if Arcane is right about Stone, same aplies to it.
ACDC with an RR. Rock and roll dude! When a TNT cover??
But he's playing it live now, so dunno. I don't care about seeing the miniswitch or not, I just care that if it's inside the control cavity you can't switch it on and off.
About the Stone guitar yeah, we don't know, but as both Alexi and Roope have said that JE1000 sounds shit with a passive pickup I think we can asume he had the JE1000 but just hidden like you say he has it on the Alexi Fin.

^ What?
Alexi has his MM04 inside the FIN guitar and it's always 'on'. I think he don't need to switch it off at any time...why should he? The drop C songs are more aggressiv so he need the power from his MM04. But maybe I talk shit but I know that he has a hidden MM04 in his FIN

What you guys are doing is Quessing
there was Never Actually Provement about the gear in the jackson guitars
never seen a picture of the underside of those pickups and never seen into the control Cravity
what they are saying dont have to mean its tru..
ok why should they lie about it
so again Roope is using J50BC and JE-1000 Combo
and about alexi we never can be sure.
there is no interview on the internet about alexi saying it.
i already had a Conversation like this with avroitus
but we came out like
lets just say alexi is using j50BC JE-1000 in his wildchild,green pin ,Stone
just because the sound is close to it and its the most logical setup you get in a Custom order about the years the guitar are made
btw Alexi only Orderd the green pinstripe by custom order
stone and wildchild are second hand and the Wildchild might be painted over when alexi bought it but that are just remours
i guess nazgul knows more about that painting thing
But im not sure

How does the J-BC50 sound just by itself with no active controls or switches. To say if you were to put in a single pickup guitar with no switches and fancy snig snags. How would the J-BC50 sound in a regular distorted amp, i.e. Marshall, Peavey 6505, etc. Or is those active controls and GP-1000 that give it even more sharp tone, or is the J-BC50 pretty good at getting a sharp trebly tone by itself compared to other pick ups.
