What players and reviewers say
On the Bare Knuckle Nailbomb Ceramic
“A little off topic but as a polar opposite comparison In a Thick/ Dark sounding guitar I love the Ceramic Nailbomb , that pickup also kicks ass.”
“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
On the DiMarzio Evolution
“On the other hand the Evolution is brighter and extremely tight.”
“The evolution is definitely one tight pickup, which has a strange reputation on here for being bright from people who have never actually used it.”
