What players and reviewers say
On the Bare Knuckle Ragnarok
“The Ragnarok neck has the same syrupy but clear mids and top end of its bridge counterpart, but with a more reduced low end.”
“The combination of a substantial low end, strong mids and controlled highs gives the pickup enough personality to remain interesting as the gain comes down.”
On the DiMarzio Dominion
“I kind of liken the Dominion bridge to a Tone Zone without the boomy bass response, and a little bit quicker and direct.”
“The Dominion has a tighter low end and more of a low mid push compared to the Super D, it is still more than capable for the classic rock thing.”
