What high output BK p'ups are suitable for SGs???

[Canadian Steve]

Apart from Cold Sweats and Warpigs.

painkiller, holy diver, miracle man, nailbomb  :lol:

[AdamB]

Why not warpigs?

[_tom_]

My Pig 90 is 21k I think and I'm sure it'd be right at home in an SG :)

[Canadian Steve]

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure WPigs would sound HUGE* but I'm playing through a vintage style amp and am after something not as powerful.

[MDV]

Yeah, fine, but what sound do you want? Theres a lot of difference between them. And once you get to the nailbombs output, theyre all suitable for all-mahogany.

[Canadian Steve]

I heard Nailbombs weren't that suitable for SGs.  I was after something high output but not over the top, if that makes any sense!

[ericsabbath]

then why not the cold sweat?

[Spitfire]

what do you want to play with it??? can you think of a famous guitarist who has a close tone?

[ailean]

I'd be interested to know why not Cold Sweats, Sue has them in her SG and they sound great.

I have Nailbombs in a LP and they work well in that but I couldn't predict how they'd work in an SG. I think they'd give you plenty of cut through in a mix, not really a vintage sound if that is what you are after though.

As always, talk to Tim!

+1 to Cold Sweats. High output, not over the top, good for modern and vintage stuff. It's a great pickup.

[Canadian Steve]

Cold Sweats sound good but I was wanting to go with an alnico bridge.

[ericsabbath]

then ask tim for an alnico version of it
alnico 5 for paf style, probably mid scooped response, tight bass
alnico 2 for a mellow middy tone, but looser and smoother, with less bass
alnico 8 for thick mids and low end, but rounded highs

[MDV]

PAFs were/are AIV.

If youre gonna go round swapping magnets, check with tim whether it will work well with that wind.

Hang on can you ask tim for a alnico cold sweat bridge?? How would that sound? I didnt know the customer service was that good.
