So, have in this guitar a set EMG81TW and 89, this guitar is all mahogany neck tru with maple top, rosewood fretboard, Tone pros string tru body, with the EMG the sound is is good but overall is dark and I want some more presence, I love the palm mutes but I think I can get a better sound with bareknuckles, I appreciate some advice and experience!!

I mean, if you want something close to the EMG's, you can't go wrong with the Miracle Man. Gimme some more info...styles, tones, players, etc.. What do you want from the pickup?

Thanks man, I play in drop C, my style is in between technical death and some doom and progmetal, some bands can define the sound: devildriver, in flames, soilwork, dark tranquillity, children of bodom, evergrey. I use 10-52 strings in this piece.

Peavey 5150 head
Marshall JCM 800 2203KK head

These four at least usually get a Miracle Man recomendation. I've been using them in an Epi SG for a while and it does a pretty good In Flames and Soilwork.
If the guitar sounds pretty dark, maybe a Painkiller, Aftermath or Cold Sweat would be the way to go, but I've never used them, so I'd say Miracle Man 'til someone else can chime in.

Thnaks guys, I have at least three options, Miracle man, Aftermath and Pinkiller, someone have tried those in a similar model?
