Hello gents! New to this forum and Bare Knuckle wares in general but I hear constant praise.
Currently have a 68 RI Les Paul Custom, came loaded with 57 Classics. While I don't completely hate these pickups, the highs are a bit too much, brittle sounding even, and the cleans (esp the neck position) sound muddy to say the least. The output is sufficient for the heavyz but I'd like a little more punch.
Looking for a higher output pickup perhaps though nothing insane. Also wanting warm, round, well balanced cleans. Finally, I'd really prefer a HB that's coil tapped (4 conductor) if the option is available. Any recommendations?
