Title: which BKP for my guitar ( death metal!)
Post by: mesallover on March 18, 2009, 12:20:21 AM: HI!
:D
I wanted to ask you which BKP is GOOD for my guitar ( bridge position):
the guitar in question is a ibanez prestige ( RG2570)

body :basswood
and maple neck!

I'm looking for a BNP for play death metal ( no modern metal , no death-core etc etc...), but the problem is to
match a BNP pick up that work WELL with basswood body!

I need definition and ultragain ( alnico V? )

can you help me?

im seriously interested to buy an BKP.. heheh

THANKS! :P

Post by: dheim on March 18, 2009, 12:55:39 PM: ceramic is tighter and clearer, alnico is more organic... what kind of death metal do you play? stockholm, gothenburg, florida, none of the above...

Post by: MDV on March 18, 2009, 12:57:18 PM: I love these "I want BR00TALZ!!!!!!" threads. They're so easy. The whole board sticks their hand up and goes "Ooooo oooo, I know this one; C-PIG"

(Or maybe painkiller)

BUT, and it's a big BUT (have you ever seen the Hitler in England monty python's sketch? :)), if he plays that old style death metal dirty and loose as hell Apig could do it... i know, i'm a pain in board's ass... :P

no, do as they say, C-pig and PK rock!

Post by: Antag on March 18, 2009, 01:11:27 PM: Although I don't have a CWP, I agree with the other posters that it's probably the best for DEATH metal. Have a search for clips by Drac in Players... :)

Agree with MDV that the Painkiller would be an alternative - tight, powerful & handles detuning well.

Also, don't discount the Alnico Warpig - especially for slightly "doomier" DM ("Dreams of the carrion kind" by Disincarnate springs to mind). If you want Obituary-esque sludge, you could even try a Holy Diver (don't laugh).

But for proper Death Metal in the style of Suffocation, Malevolent Creation, Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Cryptopsy (sorry for the list of old bands, it's a long time since I bought all the DM I could lay my hands on :lol:) the CWP is the last word... :twisted:

FWIW, read the sticky (http://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=8005.0) about the effects of different magnet types (including Tim's post about 4-5 down the thread about Ceramics).

Post by: MDV on March 18, 2009, 01:14:36 PM: I play DM on a PK

Its better for it if youre going for the origin/psycroptic/necrophagist et al, modern, well produced, ultra-precise DM.

My C-Pig is currently homeless :( But it can definately do it very, very well. But the PK has more definition and clarity, and while lower gain, has more inyourfaceness.

While the ceramic Warpig is the ultimate death metal pickup, I do think the Miracle Man is a better match for basswood RGs than the WP and it too is pretty killer in a brutal context as well.
