Aftermaths for Godin Redline HB?

[oldhairyone]

How well would they work? 

This is the guitar.

I'm looking for the whole clarity in gain thing that Periphery has going on; big distorted chords where all the strings are heard clearly.  I also like the clean tone to be as full sounding as possible.  The bridge pup on the Godin is far too trebly.

I'm just curious about how the Aftermaths would react to that specific guitar (wood etc.).

I use a Pod HD rather than an amp, if that's relevant in any way. 

Thanks!

If I were you id install a evertune bridge and use blackhawks instead of aftermaths, their clearer with open chords and are still tight enough for anything..

The blackhawk will definitely be tight enough, but I disagree about it being clearer on open chords.  The aftermath is also more raw and aggressive, whereas the black hawk is smoother, more polished.  The black hawk also has more bottom end and smoother, thicker highs.

not sure
the aftermath is extremly articulate on the tapped notes, heavier string arpeggios and fast riffs, but not really what I'd call an open sounding when it comes to string separation
well, it is compared to other brands, but it's quite dense, mid heavy and saturated on chords compared to most of the other BKP's

the ceramic black hawk sounds like a good idea, but I can comment on that

the miracle man and c-bomb are know for working really well with maple bodies/necks

the aftermath should sound great anyway

Why do you suggest the evertune?

So, Ceramic Nailbomb would be a better option?

Do BKP offer any sort of exchange service? Because I am nowhere near a dealer.

Because your guitar will stay in PERFECT tune and therefore sound better for open chords, I think you should go for the alnico blackhawk set for what your after.

But on that basis you might as well fit an Evertune bridge on any guitar, why this one in particular?  Do you work for Evertune? 

I'm sure it's a very clever device, but it's expensive to fit, adds weight and (just my personal opinion) looks hideous.

(Apologies if you do work for Evertune....)
