What players and reviewers say
On the Bare Knuckle Cold Sweat
“So I popped in a Cold Sweat bridge and presto Excellent clarity and my high end articulation is back.”
“I tried the Cold Sweat bridge and found it scooped with shrill high end and a thumpy low end.”
On the Bare Knuckle Nailbomb
“Nailbomb Bridge: Powered by an Alnico V magnet (or Ceramic, specify if applicable), the bridge pickup delivers a fat, punchy low-end, rich middle ground, and a controlled high-end response.”
Comparing with Bare Knuckle Nailbomb Ceramic
“I absolutely love the nailbomb in my jackson RR1T, though the particular beast is very dark and midrange heavy as far as sound goes.”
