    Default Bare Knuckle Pickups

    I've run into bare knuckle pickups a few places on the web but never played one? Can anyone share some info about any of their humbuckers? I'd really be interested in the nailbomb or miracle man. Thanks...

    scatterwound, slightly missmatched coiles (completely dead silent though - but makes them harmonicaly richer)

    i got a warpig and i love it to death. compared to a duncan JB, the duncan is lacking in the low end, low mids and highs. it can sometimes also sound stale.

    i dont have a lot of experience with the miracle man, having only played it for a while at a show and dont know about the nailbomb as i dont have it, but the warpig is everything and more of what i want in a bridge bucker.
    harmonicaly rich, fat (dont mistake it for muddy), raw and screaming.

    Bare Knuckle's are awesome.I have a Holy Diver/Irish Tour combo in one of my Charvels and a Rebel Yell in another.

    I agree about Bareknuckles being great sounding pickups

    I have a Crawler/Irish Tour/Irish Tour set in my Fender Strat, a Black Dog/Riff Raff set in my Gordon Smith Graduate 60 (LP clone), a Piledriver bridge pickup in my cheap Tele and an aged set of Mothers Milks in my 70's Jap Strat. I also plan on trying a set of Alnico IV Mules in my Gibson LP when I can afford it
