Bare Knuckle Aftermath + VHII 7-String Humbucker Pickup Set- Gloss Black/Black Screws

Description

Bare Knuckle Pickups Aftermath and VH-II 7-String Pickup Set with Gloss Black Bobbins.

The Aftermath 7 Bridge features Twin Rows of Black Screws while the VH-II 7 Neck has Black Screw/Slug poles. They both have 4 conductor wiring, short legs with tri-tabs.

This is one of our best selling combinations from Bare Knuckle Pickups. The focused, surgically tight response of the Aftermath pairs up perfectly with the Liquidy Lead Sounds of the VHII neck.  This set retains clarity in both positions under just about any amount of saturation.  From brutal to scrootle*, this pickup set has you covered.

*scrootle isn’t a real word yet, but with your help, maybe we can make it into one.  I’m shooting for something that means “complements an insanely focused bridge pickup in a way that doesn’t sound out of place or under powered all whilst making the guitar more versatile.”

Aftermath:
Accelerated bass response for exceptionally fast tracking of high-speed staccato riffing with crushing mid range and precise high-end articulation; perfect for the modern metal guitarist.

The Aftermath humbucker features a symmetrically hand-wound twin screw coil design and is powered by 3 custom size ceramic magnets. The bottom-end responds quickly to pick attack and tracks fast riffing extremely accurately, mids are focused and intense for ultimate punch no matter how dense the mix or how low the tuning and highs are precise and articulate. With a more compressed dynamic, single notes have masses of sustain while the front of the note is clear-cut and defined even under extreme amounts of gain.

VHII:
Crystal clear highs, defined bottom-end and the versatile output of a vintage hot humbucker lay down the ultimate in clean overdrive and even harmonic response with the VHII humbucker.

Totally unique approaches to the asymmetrical coils of the VHII humbucker allow it to retain phenomenal clarity whilst maximising the output of 42 AWG plain enamel wire. Voiced to capture the original raw energy and brown sound of the late ’70s, the vintage cut Alnico V magnet allows for a really open and touch sensitive feel. Harmonic overtones are strong and defined with excellent string separation, which produces a huge sound with superb pick attack even when used with extreme amounts of preamp gain. The design of the coils allows for great split and parallel options, working extremely well with rotary tone selectors.
