You mean the one that has the most commercial sound (I think the Rebel Yell), or the pickup that kind of figureheads BKP and defines the brand?

When you mean which BKP's sell most, I guess most hardrock/metal-oriëntated pickups are commercially a succes.

So we're talking the product that defined the company and/or is most popular???

For BKP it would have to be the Warpig.  When the WP came along, it was a game changer.

I don't know which is the best seller, but to me the most iconic BK pup is still the Mule.

Yeah, I'd agree with that.  It's always the first I think of (even though I still don't own one!)

Next in line would be the Warpig.

Absolutely. I see more and more luthiers here in Holland using BKP's, most of all Mules in mahogany guitars.

According to some conversations with BKPs staff, Mule is the best seller. That makes quite a lot of sense to me.

Well, I can understand why it's a best-seller... This and the BG52 are just pure magic.

Hello again . When I say most commercial I mean , seymour has the jb . Jb is the common choise .... What is the bare knuckle pickup flag ? I believe that it must be a versatile pickup . Am I right ? It seems difficult for me to be the warpig but I believe it if you insist ...
