No chance of clips for a while - I'm reorganising my music room (& upgrading some gear) so my setup is in bits at the moment :)

However to answer your question, I reckon that PK might be "tighter" than NB for really fast un-muted alternate picked riffs (which I presume is what you meant?)  Bear in mind though that under extreme high gain you will lose a certain amount of definition without palm muting, regardless of the pickup you use.

Also, I only have a Cold Sweat neck (you asked on another post somewhere), so can't comment on the bridge...
BKPs: HD, MM, NB, PK, CS, Ab (b&n); Am (b only); VHII, Tril (n only); IT, Slow, Sult (m&n)

Grt thread. I listend without looking at results and liked HD better good low end and definition. MM I noticed had more low end not tons though and was good. Painkiller was least favorite sounded to have some odd frequency.

They're fairly close, but I find the Holy Diver has the best clarity above low mids, the Miracle Man is very fizzy and something sounds lost in the mids (not that you were anywhere close to being EQ'd for it, I can tell) with a whopping low end, and the Painkiller has kick ass lows.  I think it's the best of the three.
Real men turn their volume to 11!
