Title: Best BKP for pinch harmonics?
Post by: Josh33 on December 25, 2006, 04:43:41 PM

whats up everyone. I was refered to BKP by a friend and i have been really impressed with the look and sound of all these pickups. I want to equip my gibson SG with 2 humbuckers but im not sure what to get tho. I need something that is heavy and can get good pinch harmonics and if they can come in  he "zebra style" that makes them better. I also have an HSS mexican strat that i owuld like to put  set in. once again si need it to me heavey but yet very classic rockish...if thats a word :P  

thanks
for the help

Josh

Try Holy Diver, Rebel Yell or Crawler

If you want something a bit more metal - try thr Miracle Man

All good for pinch harmonics!

I have a miracle man and a cold sweat (the cs was my christmas present :)), and the miracle man is awesome for pinch harmonics, they sound great and I'm not a great player. However I don't think it's classic rock ish though, to me they're more modern.

I really would of thought something like the Rebel Yell would be able to do what you want it to do.

I would be inclined to say either the Holy Diver or the VHII will get you where you want to go.

Rebel Yells pinch great.  Miracle Mans do as well but not in the way that you seem to be after.

You said classic rockish so I guess you'd like something a little brighter....  if that is the case, the Rebel Yell is definitely what you are after.  I own a set and can recommend them!
