See, there you go!

Framus and peavey make any powerfull pickup sound tight and sharp, like a ceramic!

Errrr....I'll get me coat :oops:

bye bye!

hehe
so guys, the custom option or a nailbomb?

Either.

I just compared some KSE to some NB clips and what I imagine an A5 MM will sound like based on the difference between my A5 pig and ceramic pig.

But I'd sway toward the MM. Its more focussed, and if the A5 ups the mids and smooths out the treble you should be nearly there.

The NB is a bit open and organic for it IMO.

Damn! I was going for a Nailbomb calibrated set and now I don't know anymore

Well, I say its a bit open and organic. Compared to what I imagine an A5 MM would be like!

Its probably the best standard BK for it.

Unless your amp isnt all that high gain (marshall TSL levels, say). Then its pig all the way. Closest BK to an 85 in spec and overall tone (though not that much alike really: see the EMG thread, nothing sounds exactly like an EMG, they have their own very distinctive tone).

I'd go ceramic all the way, every day and twice on sunday for KSE.

I got advised to go for a (ceramic) miracle man for KSE (amongst other things, mainly of the hair, metal, and thrash variety) by tim, too.

though I don't play any LOG or death metal (or similar), KSE is about as heavy as I get. So maybe that's it.

I didn't get advised to stop off at the pub for a quick pint or 10 before I got home, though...

:lol:

EDIT:

well i spoke to tim about it, and he reccommended that spec for an emg 85 like tone, emg 85 being the buckers adam uses :P
could somone mail him about the kse type of tone, see what reply you get?

garg, i guess I should've read on. it seems like KSE was about the only tone I wanted that alnico V was better for, then, so no surprise I got recommended the ceramic version.

Move along, nothing to see here...
