Hi, I am new to Bareknuckle pickups.
I have been trying to read a lot about them in the last few days while listening to many youtube clips.
I would very much appreciate any advice and help on choosing new humbuckers for my epiphone les paul standard plus guitar--a mahogany guitar with a flame maple top and a rosewood fretboard.
I play all kinds of metal and the guitar is down-tuned to Drop C: C, G, C, F, A, D.
Currently, I have a seymour duncan JB (sh-4) in the bridge.
While the sound is fairly good there are some things I don't like about it:
(1) It has a nasal mid range spike and too much midrange in general.
(I would like something with a little less mids and without that nasal spike)
(2) I wish it had a little more low end bass oomph and better palm muting on the lowest string.
(But I don't want the low end to be too muddy.)
(3) I want a little more smoothness on the high end, for example on guitar solos.
I was thinking of going with a warpig bridge.
But maybe a Miracle man would be good too?
What do you guys think?
Thanks for your help!
