ps: it's Eric

Hey, nice to hear from you ! I was expecting you to come here anyway :lol:

But what am I reading here ? You agree with Yoda ? And you're changing your name for MVM, which is pretty close to MDV (maybe that's the next step !) Is the Sith turning to become a jedi ?  :lol:

Thanks for this precious input : forum rule number 2 can be applied now !  8)

Still calling HTH for some comment/details about his post ! :mrgreen:

I really wouldn't rule out the Cold Sweat - it's the most fat and organic sounding ceramic pickup I've ever heard.  It has nice cut, but wouldn't call it thin or bright at all (or anything like the Dimebucker/L500XL). 

 

no frakin' way
I have become more powerful than any Jedi  :x
 :lol:
MVM is my friends account (Marcus Vinicius Magnani)
I made this account for him and sometimes I use it at work cause I can't remember my own password (it's saved at home)  :lol:

the miracle man has more treble than the cold sweat, but it's still fatter and LESS bright

I wouldn't call it bright, there is a nice amount of upper-midrange 'cut' but it's a FAT sounding pickup with great grind - reminds me of Mick Mars' or George Lynch's tone.
I would say the Miracle Man is the most trebley BKP I've tried - wasn't my cup of tea.  The Nailbomb was quite bright in it's on way too in the upper mids but the treble was FAT (wierd, but thats how I remember it).

Interesting to see you consider the MM brighter than the CS and the NB as also a bright pickup.
Would it mean you would consider the C-NB as even more bright than the CS too ?

never tried a C-NB, but knowing how ceramic magnets change the tone I'd say a C-NB would possibly be more to my taste - I'd expect more/tighter bass, less mids and not quite as fat a tone on the treble strings.
