Anybody using there humbuckers? I watched a video with a black dog in the bridge, and a riff-raff in the neck. man did they sound good. also like the mules.

I only know about these as they make the Steve Stevens Sig pup (Rebel Yell). I think the whole line is well received-

Anybody using there humbuckers? I watched a video with a black dog in the bridge, and a riff-raff in the neck. man did they sound good. also like the mules. Oh boy! BKP are my all time favorite pickup brand I've ever used! I've used their Ragnaroks, Juggernauts, Warpig, Mule, and Silo's. The Rags, Juggs, and Pigs are more geared towards heavier styles, but they don't sacrifice your clean tone AT ALL. Yes, they stay tight and clear with tons of gain, but the cleans are still just as good as any PAF I've used. The Mule's are currently in my Les Paul, they're similar to the Seth Lover's I've always used, but there's just something about the bottom end that feels so much more "present" than the Seth Lover's. What I mean is that with the Lover's, the bass frequencies felt like they were somewhat muffled, which is great for some styles, but I like clarity. But the Mule's have that bell like bottom end like you'd expect from a strat neck pickup, but with the midrange and ballsiness of a humbucker! They're AMAZING, and I can't see myself using anything else in my Lester. But my all around favorite pickups are the Silo's. I have a set in my PRS. In the past when using other pups, I'd either have nice dynamic pickups for blues and classic rock, or I'd have powerful, punchy, aggressive pups for heavy music. Sure, I could find a nice middle ground, but either the clean dynamic tones were sterile, or the heavy tones were muddy. Not anymore! The Silo's are the first pickups I've owned that will do LITERALLY anything I want to do. They're so responsive to your picking dynamics and guitar volume, retaining body and character when playing clean, but also dishing out aggressive heavy tones with incredible note clarity, with absolutely NO compromise to either!

The Mule was my first set of BKP and I got them based on a recommendation, and I liked them enough that I haven't tried anything else in their vintage style range. All BKP are amazing though so I'd imagine they'd be great!

I have a VH II bridge in a Lester and love it. Just a lot of presence and full sound while retaining high frequencies and chime. It’s not a high output pickup by any means which is what I like even though I play a lot of high gain filth.

I've tried Mules in a few guitars. I find them brighter and thinner than I like. Black Dogs in one of my Les Pauls sounds really good. Not too bright or thin, very clear and not too bassy.
