Check before ordering, pickups for Caparison Horus

[apanboll]

Hi everyone,

I want to try BKP pickup in my Caparison Horus.
I've been using EMG's last 5 year mainly because I love the "attack" sound but now I want to try something different in this guitar. My gear is Mesa triple rectifier which is soon going to be replaced by an Axe FX II.

Sounds that I like:
Bridge, tight fat sound eg.Scar Symmetry/Disarmonia Mundi/Soilwork
Neck, John Petrucci/Peter Wichers, arpeggios sweeping

For the bridge I've decided to go for nailbomb and the sinner for the neck.
The singlecoil is the hardest choice cuz I haven't heard/read so much about it. How is it compared to Chopper or air norton s?


There are plenty of options when ordering and I wanted to check with you before checking out...

Hi,

the humbucker options make perfectly sense. The single coil options are OK as well. The flat magnet profile is preferable if your guitar has a wide neck radius. The addition of a steel base plate is said to ncrease volume a little which is good when paired with a humbucker.

Cheers Stephan

I'm chosing between aBomb/Sinner or DiMarzio D-Soinic/Air Norton s and I think I'm convinced that BKP is what I'm looking for.
