PK set
« on: August 02, 2008, 07:12:49 PM »
Well, I got my BKPs installed a couple days ago and finally got a day to sit down and really play on them.
Thus far, I must say that the possibilities of different tones are endless. I've never been able to EQ like I have now.

And, holy cr@p, the AV PK in the neck sounds incredible: I've never heard/played on anything like it before. Same goes for the bridge; simply amazing.

I'd write an actual review, but I'd much rather be playing guitar...

bye!

One question, though, i've been messing around for awhile, but it seems I can't really squeeze out any pinch harmonics. I mean, I can, with much effort, do some at certain frets or spots at the bridge, but they seem to dissappear rather quickly and don't seem very "full".

Hmmm?

That is very odd. My Crawlers squeel out pinch harmonics at the mere thought of pinching. It is likely a problem that can be solved with height adjustment.

If the bridge were any higher, it would be touching the strings!

I wonder....

That's really,really weird !With my PK bridge,pinched harmonics are jumping out from everywhere !But it does so much more.. :P I was really surprised by the PK's versatility.It was my first experience with a high-output BKP and i was very pleased.It has the same qualities as the lower-output BKP's.

LOL.

Thanks guys.

I realized that the switch is backwards :-/ and I was playing on the neck rather than the bridge. How confusing! But seriously amazing pickups!

lol


but you should lower the bridge pickup anyway
you'll get a lot more than using it that close
the painkiller is extremely powerful
