Title: Chapman ML3 Modern humbucker help??? Aftermath/PKill/Pig??
Post by: natefromearth on March 18, 2018, 04:11:34 PM

Hey everyone,

Probably going to pick up a Chapman ML3 Modern here soon. I plan on replacing the bridge pickup immediately upon receiving it. I'll put a link below. Basically a mahogany single cut tele-style body, capped with a maple veneer and has a bolt-on maple neck. I record/play black metal/death metal and like the sound of Seymour Duncan's Black Winter pups, but much prefer to give my money to BKP as they hand make their products with love. I have been looking at the Aftermath ever since I read Luc Lemay of Gorguts loves them, but also the Painkillers and possibly Warpigs seem like they may fit the bill. Any suggestions/ideas for the ideal bridge bucker? All would be appreciated.

Thanks. Taking that one out of the mix helps. I forgot to mention I typically tune in C standard, sometimes D Standard, but never lower than that and I do a lot of tremolo picking. Idk if that makes a difference when it comes to the Aftermath or Painkiller. I know Luc Lemay of Gorguts uses the Aftermath and says he likes the definition at lower tunings.
