They await your command. Bare Knuckle have become world renowned for their innovative, premium quality pickups. Famed for solid articulation and unrivalled sound quality, they always bring out the best in your tone. The E-II M-II has Warpigs loaded into the bridge and neck positions, which have an incredibly dynamic tonal range. They can handle jazz fusion right through to extreme metal. The Warpig in the bridge has a guttural growl which sounds unimaginably immense when you’re chugging the lower strings. Its mid-range punch roars with wicked power, and its deep bass response brings out the depth of your notes.
The Warpig in the neck is also a tool of immense capability. It has a smoother high end for the perfect lead articulation. Its voicing is warm, but with more than enough aggression to give your music a real kick. It will also provide precise note tracking, which will help your playing stand out. Whether you're shredding or bending, everything you play will chime with definition. These two pickups will provide the sonic foundations for you to create art with your instrument.
