Most pickups fall in to one of those camps, there aren’t many that proudly sit in the middle. This one does.If you find PAF style pickups a bit too soft and modern metal pickups too hot and overly saturated this hard rock machine is a great choice.Humbucker 50mmThis pickup is a humbucker designed to fit a guitar with a standard stoptail or 50mm bridge. You may have heard of this being call ‘standard’ or ‘G’ spacing in the past.To find out if this is the right pickup check your string spacing measurements at the bridge and the nut.Nearly all guitars will use either ‘Standard’ or ‘F’ spacing. As a rule of thumb fixed bridges are ‘Standard’ and tremolo systems are ‘F’ spaced. This is not always the case though.Here is how to check.All of these string spacing measurements are the distance between the first and 6th string.If your string spacing at the bridge is less than 53mm you need a standard (50mm) humbucker for the bridge. If it is 53mm or greater you will need the F spaced bridge pickup.If your string spacing at the nut is less than 43mm then you need a standard (50mm) humbucker for the neck position. If it is 43mm or greater you will need the F spaced neck pickup.Bare Knuckle PickupsBare Knuckle Pickups have gone from underground pickups gurus to one of the biggest and best pickup manufacturers in the world.
