well, I can't talk about the c-bomb, but I had the miracle man, cold sweat, nailbomb, painkiller, holy diver and a few duncans, gibsons and EMGs mostly in the same guitar, or very close sounding guitars, and I played a long time in a very Machine Head influenced band (we also did a lot of MH covers) and a Machine Head cover project, and the only way to convince me that is any other pickup that would be better for that than the miracle man was, is  by sending your pickup to me  :lol:

Well, thats lovely, but put your dick back in your pants because he posted an in flames video as a main reference point, not a machinehead one, we all have the same machinehead albums, live shows and gigs we've been to to compare to, that you were in a machine head cover band is neither here nor there, and we both have had lots of pickups, woopie do for us :lol:.

No, you cant have my C-Bomb, I like it :p

If the c-bomb wasnt around I'd say MM was right, but it is, and its better for this. And yes, I've had both, and in 3 guitars for the...no, 4 guitars for the mm, and one of those 4 for the c-bomb.

So a ceramic nailbomb would be better than the miracle man?

Thank you for all your help, and just to confirm, a cold sweat neck? and would the C-bomb have to be calibrated?

No bother, and the CS neck and CNB brige are, I figure, quite well ballanced, but if you order them at the same time tim will make any changes needed.
