What players and reviewers say
On the Bare Knuckle Mule
“They have VERY tight and incredible overall clarity with very sweet upper high spectrum sounds.”
“I find the Gibson has less tight lows and more upper mid focus vs bareknuckle mules are balanced with tight lows and more output overall.”
On the DiMarzio Mo' Joe
“Mo Joe is a Fred but a little hotter, more aggressive, and has slightly less highs.”
“It has an aggressive presence but somehow it's smooth and not too bright just like the Mo Joe, except without the lower midrange quality the Mo Joe has..”
