Really like the clean sound!!!
I mean, the other one is cool also, but lately I'm really into those lower gain Crunchy sound where you hear all the nuances...

Chiming in late here, but these are great! 8)

I've got an old Charvel Charvette HSS lurking in the States in my parent's garage -- I've been thinking of pimping it up for 80soid metal goodness, and am now wondering whether the H needs to be a Painkiller .... :)

Thanks guys.
These things are versatile!
Of course all BKP's (ones I have/tried) all very organic and great and P*SS all over Evo's (yuck!).
The range of these things is enormous. Unfortunately (till my missus and gear arrives from Texas) I was using my mates setup and do not have enough time with it for good 'tweaking'.
I am dying to get my gear so I can actually mic the Mesa and show how gnarly these things can truly get, let alone the new amp I am planning on.

I think I need to do a nice clean,warm clip and also a VERY heavy 'nu metal' type clip next.

Hurry up UK Immigration so my stuff can get here :twisted:

Is it just me or does the Painkiller clean have an almost Telecaster vibe to it? It's a great clean sound for such a vicious pickup. Then again all BKPs seem to clean up very well all things considered.

it does clean up VERY well, kinda shocked me just how well. But thats just more in it's favor IMO. :)
