Hello,

I've got a Strat with an alder body, maple neck & fingerboard, Floyd tremolo, and a single bridge humbucker & 500k volume pot (no tone pot). I'd like to install a Bareknuckle, but not sure which model to try.

I play mainly old-school metal, like Accept (#1 favorite), Judas Priest, Annihilator, King Diamond, Megadeth, Mercyful Fate, Grim Reaper, Exciter, etc.

Would the Miracle Man or Holy Diver be good choices?

Many thanks

Nailbomb +1

I have a swamp ash\maple neck\floyd rose super strat with one in and i love all that 80's stuff.. along with the modern sound.. nailbomb is good 'middle ground'

Never heard a Holy Diver clip.. but the name sounds like itd NAIL the tone you want 8)

Rumour has it theres a Painkiller model coming, id ask Tim about that one, could be right up your alley :D

Balls to the wall!!!!

ps. Dont suppose you could show me how to play the Fast As A Shark solo? ;)

Cold Sweat or Miracle Man, for sure.

If you like Priest, wait for the Painkiller.

Why wait? A Cold Sweat will nail the classic Defenders and Vengence tone!

thanks for the replies!

looks like these are my best choices:

Miracle Man
Cold Sweat
Nailbomb
Painkiller (tba)

maybe I should flip a coin? :? nah, just going by the description, I'll probably order the Miracle Man.
