Hmm... Bare Knuckles for my K-7, should I?

Karl Hungus · 03-24-2007, 05:06 PM

I've been considering getting a different bridge pickup for the trusty K-7 for a while now, because as it seems, the Fireball doesn't get on well with it.

I was thinking of getting another Evo7 and popping in there, because that's pretty much tried and tested brilliant in my Stealth.

But then I thought, why not try a set of Bare Knuckle Pickups? Again, like with the Lundgren, it'll be considerably more expensive than the DiMarzios, but then again, pretty much all my guitars are DiMarzio equipped.

Hmm...

Do you still have the gray PAFs? If you want to sell them, let me know.

Nope, sorry. It bought it off Zimbloth who stuck in a D-Sonic and black PAF7.

7slinger · 03-24-2007, 05:56 PM

so the D-Sonic in there isn't cutting it? hmmm, cause that's what I was thinking about trying in the bridge of my grey K7

Stitch · 03-24-2007, 06:24 PM

Yup.

But i was always going to say that.

Seriously dude, hit it. These things rule. The price, (while heartstopping for americans) is well worth it for what is essentially a custom wound pickup to your specs. Scatterwoound rather than machine wound like the Lundgren, and the customer service Tim offers is just obscene - the guy is so helpful, you feel like he takes it as personal pride to respond to everyones emails, no-matter how trivial.

Shoot him an email saying what you want it to do and i'm sure he could wind it for you. I cannot recommend this guy enough. His work RULES (I've had the pleasure of installing several of his pickups, and they made every guitar sound MILES better! The only reason I haven't fitted all my guitars with Warpigs is because im saving for Ryans S7420FMTW (one day, he'll need to sell it! Mwahaha!)

and my 8 string.

JPMDan · 03-24-2007, 06:30 PM

for you I recommend the Nailbomb in the bridge as far as Neck not sure maybe Cold Sweat

ohio_eric · 03-24-2007, 06:37 PM

E-mail Tim and he'll hook you up. Or you could join the forum on the Bare Knuckle website and ask there. They give a lot of good advice.

For a bridge I would go for a miracle man. Listen to the clip on their forum.

RondoAllaTurca · 03-25-2007, 12:21 AM

Go with Ceramic Warpig bridge and a Cold Sweat neck.

It is what I went with, and I cannot complain about anything.

For that many bones, I'd be afraid to buy it without trying it. It might not take to the particulars of your playing style.. Probably the only reason why i haven't forked out the crowns for a M7 yet..
