Title: Alright boys brute force with a 7 string Warpig or organic 7 string Nailbomb?
Post by: Mutant Racer on February 27, 2014, 07:49:07 AM

I got this Baritone coming. Gonna put a Painkiller in the neck but I need your help to make a final decision on the bridge.

What sorta sound you after?  Brute force makes me think of the black hawk

Gonna need a bit more information - Wood type(s), scale length, style desired, etc.  Brute force I'd say Black Hawk, Aftermath or Warpig depending on wood type.  If you'd want something toned down a bit, the Juggernaut for sure.

Juggernaut as well - works great in my 27" baritone.

Organic?

You might be happiest with a Painkiller in the bridge too.

Sorry about that guys.

I play mostly speed metal and thrash with some punk (old punk mixed in to it). That's in a band setting but at home anything goes. The guys at BK recommend a NailBomb to keep the tone lively instead of a Warpig which is like taking a Bazooka to the face.

The guitar is a E-II ESP Horzon 7-string Baritone with a 27" scale length.

If the guys at BKP think an A-Bomb will suit your guitar I'd go for that.

I play similar styles of music to you and in my opinion that pickup is the best out of BKP's humbuckers for it
