Not to derail from the pickups but that looks amazing! Now that these have been out in the wild for a few months, do you know if they suffer from the same "glossing" that happens with the satin black models? Would you take The One over a Miracle Man in basswood?
Finish is fairly durable, it should be fairly resistant to that if you take care of the instrument. I don't like the Miracle Man pickup at all, theres way better BKPs for basswood than that IMHO. But to answer your question, yes I prefer the Lundgren over it.

Any 9 string version available?
No 9-strings at this time. Bare Knuckle makes a 9-string pickup however that I could get you.

Have you heard the bkp 9 stringer? I have a lace x-bar right now and am looking for something hotter. I would love it if my erg could sound like the dimarzios in my jem.
No i haven't. I cant (and wouldn't) play a 9-string so I have no idea, but I assume being a BKP that it will be about as good as it possibly can get. The Lace X bars tend to be fairly muddy in my experience with the Strandbergs.

Awesome, I hope mine arrive today.
Nice good to see they came in. Let me know what you think of 'em. Remember to play with the pickup height as they're very sensitive to that

Mine arrived safe and sound this morning. Looking forward to trying them out.
The Suckerbucker is very high output, very tight, very thick. Really a brutal sounding pickup, but also with terrific lead voicings. It reminds me kind of the BKP Blackhawk or Ceramic Warpig in its power and growl, but it has its own character. It sounds especially good in mahogany guitars but still sounds huge in bright guitars too.
The One is hot too but a bit more refined than the SB, and is a bit more polished. The SB is very raw and just in your face. They're both really cool, its hard to describe them because they sound so unlike other pickups you've likely heard before. The only thing I can say is, I tend to like The One in medium to brighter guitars and the Suckerbucker in medium to warmer guitars, if that helps.
I plan on making clips soon I promise!!
Its not less aggressive, no. It just I guess is a bit darker and not as edgy, but still plenty of bite and growl.
Well you got me extremely curious about the one when you said it reminded you of a cross between the nazgul and the aftermath.
i got both. i love my aftermath. but there is just something about the nazgul that i do not like, i think your description "flubby" fits.
really looking forward to your clips nick
