Looking for a vintage neck HUM to pair with Nailbomb.

I'm not normally a fan of quilted maple, but that's one of the best quilts I've seen on a Horizon :) The trans-blue is a great look, too

If the Nailbomb is a bit dark in the bridge and you want something to match it, why not think about a Black Dog? They are on the hotter end of the vintage side and seem to be darker than the Cold Sweat that was previously mentioned. :)

I'll definately consider it. I'm not going to be making my purchase anytime this month, but thanks for the tip.


Noodle. I'm dooling over that trans blue man. Its like looking into the ocean, hahaha.
That guitar is definately on my shopping list, wouldnt mind having 2 NT-IIs in my arsenal.

Keep in mind that the Nailbombs are pretty dark-sounding pickups, even in the bridge position (though less dark than in the neck).

:O mine isn't! I find it quite bright. A definite high-mid peak

Hmmm, that's weird! It might just be a case of my being used to strats and superstrats with things like Dimebuckers and Painkillers in them

I have a Miracle Man paired with a Mule... No problem with the output mismatch there, and the Mule kills the 59 (and I like the 59 as a pickup). I'm another person with a Cold Sweat set in a PRS, fantastic but not as warm as the Mule.

Bridge model or neck model? What's the dc resistance?

Wintersun from this forum had a Mule (7,1k neck model which I own now) paired with his Nailbomb in the bridge and he could not get the output to match.

Don't know the resistance but was bought as a calibrated set.... If this means that the Mule was wound hot then apologies!!  :P

Are you sure it's a Mule? Calibrated sets usually refer to two of the same type...

[HairyChris]

cr@p, you know what I mean... I think.... They were bought as a set...

[Nolly]

Ah ok. I'd imagine that if Tim knew they were going as a set, he'd want to up the output of the Mule by one way or another. They'd be very mismatched in output otherwise.
