Title: which Bare Knuckle for Akira/Loudness?
Post by: Untermyer on January 22, 2009, 02:16:34 AM

hello,

which Bare Knuckle bridge humbucker would get me close to Akira's badass tone from the Thunder in the East album?  (songs:  Crazy Nights, Like Hell, Run for your Life, et al.)

the guitar is a Warmoth Soloist copy with alder body, bolt-on maple neck and fingerboard, Schaller Floyd.  it has single humbucker route at bridge and 1 vol pot (no tone).

Holy Diver????

thanks

Welcome.

Not a Holy Diver ...

I would say Cold Sweat or Miracle Man. Definitely ceramic.
