Ceramic pig or miracle man is the closest you'll get. Depends what gain lvel you want.

Alnico Warpig vs Ceramic Warpig

i want an alnico pickup
i think miracle man doesn't have the mids i want and ceramic warpig is too crispy
i want that sound of holy diver, but tight like a miracle man and powerful like an alnico warpig

how alnico miracle man sounds on the mids (specially low mids)?
alnico 5 magnets make some pickups sound more scooped than ceramic magnets, so i don't know if it would add or decrease mids
maybe a 23k overwound miracle man with alnico 5 magnet
i'm thinking of alnico 8 magnet too cause it's a little brighter and gives more mids than a5, but tim doesn't like this magnet

ask Tim, see what he can do while he is Winding the pickup. if it is overwound, does that increase tightness? i heard something about that, but i'm not too sure.....
