hi everybody here... lemme introduce myself shortly... my name is Nam but you can call me David... im from Vietnam but currently in Singapore for study... 16 this year
ok anyway this is my first post in this forum... been hearing about bareknuckle... ive been a fan of Seymour Duncan and Dimarzio... however gonna try something new... so just come by here to ask for advice
Tele set: i dont currently own one but gonna get by end of this year or early next year a MIJ thinline with HSS configure (hum at the neck)... so any help?... i woud like a hot hum at the bridge yet still have the legendary twang... mid single would like a vintage sound with clarity... the hum would like a thick sounding kinda pickup and vintage output as well
ok another set i would ask for me and some of my friend's interests... i own a SA260FM with current upgrade Seymourduncan Duncan Distortino bridge, SSL-1 mid and Cruiser Neck... would like a new set for this with high great output with clarity for the bridge (thinking of the warpig)... mid definitely a high output vintage... the neck would like a bell like kinda strat sound...
ok i know its kinda lengthy but do help i appreciate a lot :D

Welcome!
Sorry, can't help you with the Tele question. But as for the other one, I would recommend a MIRACLE MAN in the bridge with two TRILOGY SUITES for the middle and neck position.
For a more pronounced midrange, I would recommend a HOLY DIVER in the bridge with two IRISH TOURS.

thanks for the warm welcome:D
can you please kindly elaborate on why you choose that option? like tonewise and such

Hi David,
I have an Ibanez SAS36FM, which is fairly close to your guitar and I've recently ordered a set of BKPs for it. I'm looking at installing a Nailbomb/Slowhand/Mother's Milk set in it and when I do I'll let people know how it sounds and will post clips. Just so ya know.

Hey, when you say you want a hot humbucker at the bridge, so you mean a single-coils-sized one? Because you said that the guitar will be H/S/S, with the humnucker at the neck.
If you want a single-coil-sized humbucker, then BKP doesn't make them, since they don't like how they sound. You can get a very hot single-coil though, called The Sinner, which is as hot as a humbucker, but doesn't cancel hum.
As for your other Tele pickups, I'll let the Tele users here chime in on that one.
By the way, you can always email BKP and Tim will give you great recommendations. :)

Sure.
The Miracle Man is, to me, what the Duncan Distortion WANTS to be. The Irish Tour is probably the closest to the SSL-1 in terms of general tone, but with a classic vintage Strat, bell-like tone in the neck. So, the Miracle Man/Irish Tour Suite is similar to the DD/SSL-1 but with higher resolution and better tone.

guys thanks for all the replies! :D
anyway just to ask what humbucker would sound great in SPLIT COIL mode? i heard the WARPIG and MAN! IT SOUNDS AWESOME!!!
by the way which are the single coil that is not hum canceling?
im not looking single-cized hum and yes because i find them doesnt sound great as well... refering to other brand that i tried

All the Bareknuckle singles are true singles I think, so none are hum-cancelling.
