Title: Question about BKP's
Post by: jtwebb864 on February 17, 2011, 01:56:59 PM

Hey guys i'm new to the site and have been doing some research on new pickups. I play an Ibanez RG3EXFM1 with V7 and V8 passive pickups. I'm looking for high gain passive pickups with nice mids and a tight sound and have been looking at the BKP's and i dont know if BKP's are passive. I listen to bands like veil of maya, periphery and other progressive metal and am looking for that tone. Any suggestions?

All BKPs are passive pickups.

Bulb is using an Aftermath nowadays, so I suppose you'll be happy with it.
