Wow! The Mountain Of Tone humbucker from Dean's DMT line of pickup is incredible. Let's first consider the man it's made for: Leslie West.
Dean DMT Mountain Of Tone. The Mountain Of Tone humbucker has it's work cut out for it. Of course, that makes me interested. The people at Dean have always been a pleasure to deal with, so I'm glad to have the opportunity the check out this pickup. A Dean pickup shows up in the packaging you'd expect from a boutique product. Guitar Gear Review: DMT Nostalgia Humbucker Pickup The Nostalgia character translates to chime and detail on clean amp settings and focus and presence on a dirty setting.
There is no denying that Leslie is most commonly known for 1970's Mississippi Queen. Fun footnote: Leslie also played on covers of the song for Sam Kinison in 1990 and Ozzy Osbourne in 2005. The big provocative riff that hits you in the chest while the sweetly rude solo licks at your ears.

A Dean pickup shows up in the packaging you'd expect from a boutique product. Dean also labels the baseplate with the name of the pickup in plain language. And last but not least, the hardware. Nicely substantial springs that keep things firmly in place while being an manageable length for ease of installation. Or am I the only one that chases those long skinny springs across the room? HaHa! Also, the screws are Phillips head, which I find much easier and faster to work with.
And the tone! Sheesh! The Mountain Of Tone lives up to it's name. Big and full and rich and saturated while being articulate and snarling. This humbucker has more juice than a NFL training camp locker room.
On a dirty amp tone, the Mountain Of Tone is in the comfort zone. Riffs are hard-hitting with explosive authority. Big open chords fill the room with character. And the harmonics. Holy moly, Batman. This pickup is one of the most responsive to harmonics that I've laid ears on. It doesn't meet a squeal that it doesn't like. LOL!
Open console and click on the NPC - the NPC's ID will be displayed mid screen. Type equipitem (item id) 1. Make sure you have that 1 at the end or they will remove the item later. This definitely works - I've changed a lot of the (non follower) NPCs armor/clothing this way and it has not reverted back to default. NEXUS SKYRIM SE FILE OF THE MONTH - APRIL 2017 - THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT - ABOUT This is a comprehensive, standalone children overhaul mod. I'm guessing from how the kids were implemented in Skyrim that Bethesda either 1) did NOT want to include children and were forced into it by popular demand, or 2) they just hate kids. NPCs have no voice! - posted in Skyrim Technical Support: Greetings everyone, Im having a problem with my freshly installed Skyrim Legendary Edition: The NPCs have no voices whatsoever and their mouths are not moving when they talk; so if i dont enable subtitles, theres no way to tell whether they are just looking at me or theyre actually talking to me! The basic info: The OS is Windows 7. No NPC Greetings. Description Discussions 0 Comments 43 Change Notes. Add to Collection. Category: Gameplay. Will this mod get updatet for Skyrim Special Edition and uploaded at Bethesda? Icicle C Cold May 29. Note: active quests are always 'around player'. So NPC must not be part of a quest. make a new save file. Not 'quick', real one - make a backup - exit Skyrim - remove mod - start Skyrim - repeat 'wait and new save and backup' - exit Skyrim - start Skyrim Maybe it will work, maybe not. Skyrim special edition no npc greetings.
Going to a clean amp tone, I'm totally expecting overbearing breakup so commonly found with humbuckers in the 16k range. Not so with the Mountain Of Tone. In series wiring, there is a totally workable voicing that makes clean options very versatile. Even more so in split and parallel wiring options, where cleans are snappy and super chimey.
Here's an official sample of the Mountain Of Tone in action:
