Heya Guys
Im going to get another :shock: Bare knuckle pickup for me. even though im more than satisfied with my nailbomb set. I always wanted to try some BKPs but never had the opportunity.
Out from my tonal researches and your soundclips, i came to the following conclusions as my favorite Bkps , again, although i never played some of them :
Nailbomb - Like it a lot and back when i bought it, was my favorite. and still is for the moment.
Aftermath - looks and sounds like what i was searching for. bu i havent tried it nor heard a single convincent soundclip or video.
The Mule - heard a few clips but i think its too low output for my tastes. besides of that, i loved the pickup.
Cold Sweat - This one makes me think of the problem i had with the MIracle man and its lack of middles. if its like the MM, then i dont even want to try it. Cause im really a MID Guy myself and i cant stand ppickups without mids or with scooped or reduced/masked mids. besides of that,im really interested in testing it in the neck, for Soloing purposes.
BlackHawk - Sounds interesting, and im a fan of the EMG 81 myself, but recently i tried the d activator 7 bridge, and wasnt stoked nor surprised byt its sound. Its for sale now and i already bought my favorite dimarzio 6 string pup, the evolution, but now a 7 string version. it sounds awesome. So.. im not so excited to see the bkp take on the emg 81.. BUT i want to try it nevertheless. just to make sure i like it or not.
VHII - this one is another mystery to me too. just a few soundclips and i couldnt see the character im loking for on it. so although i liked a few clips, its not clear to me if im going to like it or not.
So based on my explanation and likes/dislikes ..
Could you guys please talk a bit more about these pickups ? pros and contras and Most important, hows each ones Voiced for?!?! Thats important.
Thanks
JP
Im kinda already inclined to get an AFtermath. but i could change my mind.
PS - no need for Nailbomb review as i have a set here. Q: P
PS 2 - I forgot the 7 strong tips. but they arent that important.

I'm not being rude but do you want the moon on a stick too?
There is literally 1000s of words/review written about those pick ups on the forum already.
So my advice is "Yes you should definitely buy one of those BKP pickups and you might like it"
Ask a better question and you'll get a better answer.
