gaps in the BKP range? - ideas...

[Henk]

Actually, for a hot PAF one could probably just stick an alnico IV or II under a Blackdog or Emerald, at least im thinking about doing something like that. The only real reason why i havent done this allready is that if i order such a pickup it wont be voiced for the AIV, which can be a mayor disappointment.

I like 'em although a GnR themed set, surely the easiest name has to be Sweet Child?

When I asked Tim about a tone like GnR he said the set to go for was Stormy Monday. So the product is already there...

Thanks for posting that info Ted, I had often wondered  ...  :D

Sounds sensible - Slash uses Alnico Pro II SDs so the basic spec is similar......

Yup, that were my first thought when I checked.

Come to think of it, a Diver/Bomb type bridge pickup that is AIV. Somewhere down the road, I'd want something to pair with an AIV neck pickup without having that huge midhump in the middle position that AV+AIV gives. And I also like my bridge pickup to be fairly high output and relatively warm/bassy, like the Holydiver and Nailbomb. For the name I suggest Elegant Gypsies 8)

Oh, and as previously discussed, we need something named after Maiden. Just for the name's sake.

"Echoes" single coil set?? anyone??

[hunter]

"Rising Force" SingleCoil set?

[MDV]

C'mon, people, lets not make this a 'Make a BKP named after something from my farourite band' thread!

I think this is really usefull, if theres a role for the pickup. Please post what sort of specs or sound it should have!!

Superterrorizer:

23k Ceramic
Lower resonant peak than a miracle man, but maybe higher than the pig, more mids, pig-ier levels, but a smoother high end than the pig. ULTRA tight bass.

Double screw pole (cos thats how I like all my bridge pickups  :lol: : it adds more bass by default, but you can sort of EQ the pickup with the relative height of the coils)

"Rising Force" SingleCoil set?

And that differs from the Trilogy Suite how?

the Demonizer:

66.6k, tripple ceramic magnet, only comes in brand new titanium/lead alloy covered options, because it's practically a small nuclear plant.
plug straight into the cab for the most massive of distorted sounds. who needs an amp with that kind of output



stop daydreaming and work with what you've got. 90% of BKPs are so damn versatile, you can use them for any style you want damnit. excluding maybe the ceramic pig, but even that in parallel ... who knows

Agreed. I think everyone should just use Mules or similar and stfu :P

Yeah, but tim would be shut down if people came onto the forum saying
"what I really want is a set of sweet children- smooth but nice and hot.
good for gary glitter tones as well"

texcluding maybe the ceramic pig, but even that in parallel ... who knows

I do

Pretty versatile. Softens the sound and rounds it quite pleasantly. Back off the volume and you have a suprisingly open tone and good clean (especially for ceramic!).

I still want the full realisation of what the C-Pig is in a dedicated pickup, wound to be ceramic and aimed squarely at the most destructive, but extremely clear, of metal.

Its just because there isnt a model for it. You have to specify C-pig, and its popular largely, I believe, because of the boards (its where I found out about it and have recommended it many times!)
