Bare Knuckle Black Dog 'Nickel' Set
An aggressive, throaty humbucker with a deep bottom-end, muscular mids, smooth highs and more output than a vintage PAF.
The Black Dog humbucker is designed for players, that need a vintage voiced pickup with an extra weight in the mid range. By hand-winding with a modern polysol wire the Black Dog is able to match the asymmetrical coils of The Mule, while gaining additional output and grind. A stronger, richer mid and extended bass response lends itself to hot blues and hard rock tones without compromising any of theclarity. Single note playing has plenty of weight behind each note with a solid high-end, that can really sing when used with an added preamp gain. Clean tones have depth and a full bodied ring to each string with excellent note separation in chords. The Black Dog humbucker is also particularly good at providing extra definition and punch to extended scale guitars. Seven string and baritone guitars benefit from better control of the high register and increased definition in the bass.
Blues, Garage, Punk, Grunge, Alternative, Classic Rock, Heavy Rock and Metal. Equally at home on any solid-body guitar and especially well suited to extended range guitars or any guitar, which lacks in the mid range.
