does anyone have a 6 string bareknuckle in a mahogany bodied guitar?

Im going to switch out the bridge pickup on my caparison because i recently cranked it through the engl and the results were a bit dissapointing tbh the neck PU is great but iv been meaning to switch the bridge for a while.

i like a clean crisp crunchy distortion tone im racking my brain to think of something to compare to so i suppose i like the 7 string tone for I by meshuggah. I just want a lot of deffinition but i like high output.

Suggestions?

if tim mills made condoms, they'd probably be the best sounding condoms in the world.

sorry, i know that doesn't necessarily help, but...

that's correct, yes. apparently he was unable verify who would be getting the most pleasure, apropros of the "...for her pleasure" tagline used typically for the ribbed editions, and so left it out for further consideration.

i'm immensely happy with my nailbombs. if you actually speak to tim, he tends to be very good at prescribing which pickups might be best for what you need.

Email Tim. He's a really nice guy and he knows his stuff. I'm guessing for the Meshuggah sound a Warpig (maybe even a ceramic Warpig

) would be perfect. If it helps at all, I've been playing a Fireball at band practice and my Nailbomb bridge/Cold Sweat neck sounds absolutely amazing with it!

They can definitely bring the crushing djent.

Like alpo said, ask Tim. He knows his stuff.

Off the top of my head I'd say go either Nailbomb or maybe Cold Sweat.

Nick · 12-21-2007, 08:56 AM

cold sweat is more of a neck pickup i think. il mail him and see what he says.

The Cold Sweat bridge model is a totally different beast than the Cold Sweat neck. The bridge is a 14.5K with a big ceramic magnet. The Cold Sweat neck is 8.3K with an Alnico V magnet.

aahhh ahh well its just been thrown into consideration also!

If you want it tight and powerfull like a Lundgren, the ceramic Warpig is the closest thing I think.
