Author Topic: Help on deciding what to put in a Dean 79ML (Read 3008 times)

Well, I've decided I'm gonna get some Bare Knuckles to put into my ML but I'm not too sure about much of this stuff. I know I want a Warpig to put in the bridge but I'm not too sure what to put into the neck. I'm lookin for a good metal tone that doesn't suck on cleans too. I play mainly any kind of metal and some clean stuff too. What do you think I should use as a neck pickup? Thanks in advance for any help, cause I'm clueless.

The best option is to get a calibrated set of Warpigs. They are awesome for metal and they clean up really well too. The Neck has a DC of 17.5K with an Alnico V magnet and has a great lead tone, as well as nice cleans.

I was thinkin about that but I didn't know how it would sound. Well, thanks for clearin that up. But I've got one more question:

Where it says "Conductor" and "Spacing" what are the differences there and what am I supposed to put? Thanks.

4 conductor is used if you want to use coil taps, series/parallel options. 2 conductor is the standard for basic installation.
The spacing options are 50mm which is standard Gibson spacing and 52mm which is fender (trem equipped guitars) spacing. However the warpig is only available in 50mm because of the large magnetic field it produces you don’t need a wider spacing.

Hope this helps and welcome to the forum!

That cleared that up, thanks for that and the welcome.
