Would like some suggestions pretty please
« on: June 01, 2006, 07:06:56 AM »
Hello all. I've done alot of searching but I'd like to get opinions before I order. I play through a Gibson LP Standard and a B-52 AT-100 Amp. I'm wondering which pickup would be the best for sounds like Soundgarden/STP/Creed/3 Doors Down? Also, do all BKP's sound good clean? I've heard some clean clips of a couple. I just assume they all do but just thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Hi and welcome. I'm not sure wich pickup you'll need. But one thing is for sure, all BKP's I've heard are really good clean. Even my 20K Warpig has a very nice and sweet clean.

Nailbombs work great in my Les Paul. They clean up real well and still have excellent power when you need to go to 11. :twisted:

For a close match to those tones a black dog or crawler in the bridge should do it. If you want a bit more power then a nailbomb would be good.
