I've got an Ibanez 2027xvv. Pickups are still stock, but I'll be looking to Nick to change that for me this Christmas
Excellent
I've owned an RG2027 before, I definitely know which models would smoke in there \m/
Well, what would you suggest? I'm lookin to get All Shall Perish/Unearth type tones, and I'll be playing through a Bogner Uberschall. I believe we've discussed this before, but I was playing an ENGL back then
I would recommend the Bare Knuckle Painkiller first, ceramic Nailbomb second for bridge pickup consideration. The PK is extremely tight, aggressive, defined, and brutal as hell. Its upper midrange 'snarl' and crunch is the perfect compliment for the mahogany/rosewood's mellow, low-mid girth. With the PK there is no mud or flub, just attack, harmonics, and roar. In mahogany it has a lot of balls too. Great balance., especially given that the Bogner is pretty massive sounding in its own right.
The NB would be a good choice if you wanted something a little darker and not quite as hot.
For the neck, I'd go with the matching PK neck model. Great leads and clean tones, and matches up perfectly with the bridge. Plus you save a few bucks getting the set versus two separate models.
If you have any questions, or would like to discuss this further feel free to ask away. I enjoy chatting about this kind of thing. You can also contact me directly if you'd like, or if you want more information on the Painkillers you can check out my
website (work in progress but just posted something on the PK7 set earlier today). Look in the 'pickups-->bare knuckle-->in stock now' section
