Help me choose a pup
« on: March 13, 2009, 11:25:47 PM »
So I just got an Esp Horizon Nt II guitar and I wanted to change the pups for Bare Knucle ones. Been wanting some long time. So Im asking what kind of pickups would you suggest for chuging metal I have two youtube links that I would want for suggesters to watch before recommending me some pups.

For Chugin I really liked http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq0Ph97_H1w

So I should propably get Bareknuckle Warpig

What about the neck ? I wonder if I should replace the neck pickup also tho Warpig is also more than enough for rythm and lead according to the Chuging video :)

BUT I liked alot this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKkMxJiCjTU

So should I just get the Warpig for the rythm chuging OR should I also get the Nailbomb? Tho Will it sound as good as neck pickup? Cause if it wont sound so much the same i'll just get the Warpig

My earlier guitars have had Emg 81 Active pickup (only 1 ) so im not so familiar to bridge and neck pickups sound differences. For rythm I defenitely prefer the Warpig, but for the shredding (if it sounds the same at all ) I'll be getting the Nailbomb for neck so I can switch chugging and lead from Warpig to lead / solos Nailbomb. So Warpig - Bridge, Nailbomb - Neck

Suggestions ? Tips ? Gimme!

The Warpig and Nailbomb go together like wine and cheese I heard (which is good)

Or maybe it was the Miracle Man, not sure.
