Hey, Guys! Looking for some guidance on metal pickups from the Bare Knuckle line-up. Originally, I had been thinking Painkillers, then got into Aftermath. Now I’m torn between Aftermath, Nailbomb Alnico, and the ceramic Warpig. Pups are going into an all mahogany (no maple cap) Les Paul Custom (set-neck, hardtail bridge). Goal is an aggressive high-output pickup that also shines in lower-gain settings. What would you say is the most versatile BKP metal pup? Also, what metal pup especially shines in Les Pauls? I appreciate your input. I’m especially interested in comparisons/contrasts among the pickups I’ve mentioned. Thanks, guys! This will be my first Bare Knuckle pup set. They’ll be replacing a Duncan Pearly Gates neck and Duncan Custom bridge. I like those pickups, but am wanting to refresh the guitar. Thanks, all!
