BKP's equivalent of Seymour Duncan Custom (bridge) ?????

duncan forum guys say the duncan custom is enameled 43 awg, which makes sense for me, especially after hearing their alnico versions

Thanks for correcting me on that one
I was trying to figure out which was which
Do you happen to know what the Custom Custom, custom 5 and JB are
Are they all 43 gauge?
I thought the JB was 44 gauge as was the Duncan Distortion

all the custom models are said to have the same winding with 43 enamel, but different magnets
the distortion is supposed to be the same as the JB, which is supposedly 44 poly, buth the oversized ceramic magnet
some say the invader also has the same winding specs as the distortion, but with extra magnets and different screws
I can't confirm those specs, but that's what I usually read on duncan forums

I wonder what a nailbomb with alnico II would sound like, especially on the mids
a nailbomb with a smoother top and more upper mids would be tasty

Thanks for that
I think the Holy Diver and Painkiller are both 44 gauge but not sure if that is plain enamel or polysol- would have to check

I like understanding what makes each pickup sound the way it does, but I'm just glad they all sound how they do really.
Makes life fun!

I do need to get a pair of Aftermath pickups and try them in the Feline Pantera in place of the Painkillers - see how the tone changes
