................. I've bought a set of Bareknuckle Pickups off Ebay for my Gordon Smith Graduate 60 (Les Paul).

The pickups that are in it at the minute (Screamin' Demon/Pearly Gates) are ok, but there's just something 'missing' for me.

As some of you may remember, I had this guitar made in rememberance of my Grandad dying last year, so I thought I'd try some Bareknuckles to see if they improve the sound of the guitar so that it can be the best that it can be :)

Just thought I'd share the info :)

All the more reason ...
The pickups need to be put into a guitar that has seen an equal amount of rainfall and fog.

I'll be sure to review the pickups when I get them and have spent a little time with them.

I've bought a Black Dog (Alnico V) for the bridge and a Riff Raff (Alnico II) for the neck. Their website has info on these pickups if anyone's interested.

Does anyone carry these in the States? The Black Dog looks intriguing...

I may sell the Demon, it all depends on how I like the Black Dog in the bridge :)

If I like it, and you're interested in the Demon, then I'm sure we could come to an agreement :D

As far as I know there's no dealer in the States as of yet, but Bareknuckle do ship abroad so you could always order 1 anyway if you wanted 1 :)
